Take Action
You don't need to be an AI expert to push for democratic oversight. Here are practical tools you can use today.
Contact Your MP
Your MP represents you in Parliament, where AI governance decisions are made. Letters from constituents are part of how MPs gauge what matters in their constituencies — particularly on emerging issues where few people are writing in.
How to Write an Effective Letter
- 1. Identify yourself as a constituent (include your address)
- 2. Be specific: ask about binding AI safety legislation, not "AI" generally
- 3. Reference concrete facts (use the capabilities catalogue)
- 4. Ask a direct question they need to respond to
- 5. Keep it concise - one page maximum
