Dear {name}, I am writing to draw your attention to a very important paper written by Professor xxx of yyy and Professor xxx of yyy. This paper demonstrates beyond reasonable doubt that the referendum result cannot be judged to be a sufficient or reliable indicator of the will of the people. This is not a political point. We live in a society built on a belief in science. The science of statistics is use repeatedly in the arguments for and against Brexit. It would therefore be irrational to ignore the conclusions of this paper. I am slightly baffled as to why its clear and rigorously arguments are currently universally ignored by politicians of every colour. Admittedly, it is not an easy read and the mathematics is not for the faint hearted but this does not dilute the central result of its analysis and I would urge you to read the paper and where necessary to seek advice. The fundamental truth is the Referendum Act of 2015 was not well formulated and its result is simply not a measure of anything meaningful. The paper shows why this is the only reasonable conclusion. It follows that it would be dishonest and irresponsible for any politician to suggest the result provided them with any kind of a mandate. This may well be an uncomfortable fact for many but I would suggest that what the public would like see most is a great deal more honesty in our national politics. I simply respectfully ask that you give some consideration to the contents of the paper. Thank you for your kind attention. I fully appreciate the rules governing MP's correspondence with non-consitutuents. This is clearly not a constituency matter and I do not expect a reply. Yours sincerely, John McKay T: 01803 732117 Harbertonford Devon TQ9 7TY
