Hello all,
Just to follow this up, the final version of the letter has now been sent and takes into account some of the suggested revisions. It can be seen at https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/File:Letter_to_MEPs_with_images.pdf - thanks again for the useful feedback.

Just reviewing this feedback there's a couple of specific points I want
to
address.
"Copy violations" for images. I am going to link to them in the digital version and give an accreditation in the printed version. Links are included for the digital version. They will be added as
citations
for the print version. With reference to "groups of MEPs" - Mike, this is pretty standard. Each
MEP
represents either a political party or are independent. Each party / independent (in almost every case) is a part of a wider, cross-Europe grouping. For example, UK Independence Party MEPs are mostly members of
the
wider "Europe of Freedom and Democracy Group". Andy, your comment about the House of Commons is noted. I shall replace
that
image. Mike, I'm pretty certain we have discussed the mention of start-ups
before.
It is about noting that many different groups will benefit from change. Competition, particularly in tech, is very important to Europe on a
global
level. Noting that these changes benefit start-ups as well as other
groups
is really speaking to them in a language they will understand and respond to. Andy, your point about the reply address is sensible. We are now establishing a new email address specifically for this project.
I will share a final version later in the week once the letter has been posted. Thanks for the constructive viewpoints.
Stevie
Thanks for answering some of the points in this email thread.
It is pretty obvious that you have chosen to ignore mine. I guess this is your call as it is your letter.
