Solution for Dr Julian Lewis MP #259

Open MyfanwyNixon opened 9 years ago

Dr Lewis will not accept communication via email. In the past we have faxed him users' messages, but I understand that when our fax server recently bit the dust, we made the decision that it was not worth replacing it for the sake of a single representative.

This is not so much a ticket about us finding a solution; it's more to record that I've had three emails from users in the last month, asking what can be done (I've replied to explain the situation and to say that they might like to contact Dr Lewis to tell them that they strongly want him to begin using email). I suppose we could mount our own campaign if we wanted to. But we'd have to deliver it by post.

Links with #176 - we could implement a email-to-fax gateway that converts emails to faxes, but would cost us.

We could just put a message on his page with his phone number, which he gives on his website, or the different number on parliament.uk.

That would seem helpful, certainly in the interim.

Another user email this morning.

After discussion with @markcridge: can we add all his contact methods: phone, fax, surgery address?
