Dear Mr Kidney,
One presumes that you have not been living under a rock for the last few weeks. Doubtless then you are aware that your party colleague Peter Mandelson, after a dinner with David Geffen (as reported at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/08/17/lord_mandelson_digital_policy/), now has the bizarre idea one of the effects of the new Digital Economy bill should be that he should be allowed to act outside the law to protect the rights of copyright holders, as reported at http://www.eff.org/action/uk-alert-stop-pirate-finder-general and http://www.boingboing.net/2009/11/19/breaking-leaked-uk-g.html .
I am writing to ask that you do everything in your power to stop this power-mad reptile from getting this bill through in its current form. I assure you that if you do not, I will not vote for you in the upcoming general election next year. Furthermore, I shall urge all my friends and family to vote for your opponents, and I shall make the maximum possible donation to the opponent that I judge has the best chance of beating you and your party.

Yours sincerely,
Me.
