I went to the page below and tried adding my name and it came back "This service is currently unavailable." Still, worth trying to add your name to.

Anything else reasonable to request?

I submitted a request to OPSI (HMSO) to release pictures of MPs and Lords under a free licence. They are a number of problems, for example OPSI don't own the copyrights. However, we can use their 'unlocking' tool to show there is a demand.

I find it amazing that thee aren't free pictures of our representatives. In the US, pictures of Senators and Representatives are Public Domain.

Anyway, to see more go to http://www.opsi.gov.uk/unlocking-service/2009/05/16/PhotographsOfLordsAndMPs .
