Evening everyone, 

I hope you're all having a great start to the new year, mine has been hectic, hence the lack of communication. 

I was prompted to posting an update this evening because I finally received a letter from my local MP (Lauren Edwards) regarding our petition on cancelling the extended freeze on our PAYE tax bands. 

As you can see, it is a lacklustre response that basically says the government is doing all it can to support people. It doesn't acknowledge our petition in any way nor does it give any indication of action being taken by Lauren.

Obviously, I'm a little frustrated with this, so I will follow up and press the matter, as well as push the message of the growing strength of our petition. 

If any of you have received responses from your MPs, please do email them to me at Richard@TheRegulatorGuy.co.uk. I'll let you know when I've prepared my response and offer you the opportunity to send the same (or a similar) letter to your local MPs.

Thanks everyone, enjoy the rest of your week. 

Richard Winstone
