I apologise if this has already been done today, but tomorrow the MPs are voting on the bill to sell off the nations forests (inc. Grizedale, Thetford, Dalby etc. Please take a couple of minutes to email your local MP and try to get this stopped.

New aspect to this, there's a vote being held as the OP says tomorrow that was only decided about on Friday actually asking the question which most people would like asking which is should we sell off the forests which is a tad different from the current government question of how can we sell off the forests despite it costing the tax payer now and in the long run in cash terms but still dress it up to make it look like we're doing the public a favour.

Done. Emailed my local (tory) MP about it. I don't hold out much hope, but apparently he rebelled on the student fees vote, so you never know...
