A group of us meet with an ex-MP, who explains about how Parliament works so that we can understand how to extend our influence. Basically, it works like this. MPs are very busy. They are not going to turn up to anything you organise. They are not going to answer your letters or return your calls. They are not going to be remotely interested in IP unless it threatens to destabilise the entire UK economy, and even then they will probably wait for instructions from Angela Merkel. But there is an exception to this. If you can find a local connection, an MP will turn up to be photographed shaking hands with his or her constituents. So all we have to do is find some photogenic voters who have had something to do with IP (other than downloading pirated movies), and invite MPs to come and meet them, and make sure our Chief Shouty Person Mr Lampert is there with his camera and the Daily Mail on speed-dial. And we use this opportunity to tell Daily Mail readers throughout the UK how outraged we are by the EPO’s stance on added subject matter.
