If you are reading this page, it means you chose to engage after seeing information on our main site. You are not Iranian, and you did not have to take this step. We genuinely appreciate that you did.
Many people in the UK have recently seen news about events in Iran or noticed peaceful demonstrations in British cities. After reading more or speaking to people involved, some decide they want to understand the issue better and, if they agree, take a simple civic action. This page exists for that purpose.
Below this section, you will find a suggested email addressed to a UK Member of Parliament. We encourage you to read it first, with no obligation to agree with every word.
The draft is there simply to explain the concerns clearly and respectfully. You are free to change it, shorten it, or ignore it entirely and write your own message.
If you decide you would like to take part:
• Enter your postcode in the search box
• The system will identify your local MP and constituency
• A draft email addressed to your MP will be prepared
• You can edit the draft as much as you wish, or write your own message
• You send the email yourself
Nothing is sent automatically. You remain fully in control of the content.
MPs rely on constituents to raise concerns so they know what issues the public expects them to address. Even a short, thoughtful email asking what the UK government is doing, and what more can be done, helps ensure these concerns are taken seriously.
If you believe this issue deserves attention, we encourage you to take two simple steps. First, send an email to your local MP using the box below. Second, consider signing the official UK Parliament petition.
Parliamentary petitions can lead to formal government responses and, if they reach certain thresholds, may be considered for debate in Parliament. Lawful and peaceful civic engagement strengthens democratic accountability.
Taking the time to read, reflect, and act is meaningful. Your willingness to engage, even briefly, is sincerely appreciated.
Dear [MP’s Name],
I am writing as a local constituent who has recently become very concerned about the situation in Iran.
I am not Iranian and have no personal connection to the country, but I have been following the news, reading reports from human rights organisations, and recently spoke with people at a peaceful demonstration in the UK. What I heard and read was deeply troubling.
There are serious allegations of large scale killings, mass arrests, torture, and enforced disappearances during recent unrest in Iran, along with deliberate internet shutdowns to prevent information getting out. These are not isolated claims, but concerns raised repeatedly by credible international organisations and journalists.
I appreciate that foreign policy is complex, but I am writing to ask what practical steps you, as my MP, can take to raise these concerns in Parliament and with the government. In particular, I would like to know:
• What actions the UK government is currently taking in response to these reports
• Whether further diplomatic, legal, or targeted measures are being considered
• How Parliament is holding the government to account on human rights in Iran
I am not asking you to support any particular political figure or movement. My concern is simply that the UK should not remain silent in the face of credible reports of widespread human rights abuses.
I would be grateful to hear your view on this and what steps you believe are realistic and appropriate.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Yours sincerely,
[Your Name]
