12 MPs and 8 days until 1984

There are twelve MPs yet to be allocated a Nineteen Eighty-Four.

I signed up over a week ago to this plan to send a copy of George Orwell’s 1984 to every single MP:

This book cost less than a fiver; are you prepared to spend the price of a couple of pints for your freedom?

On November 5th 1605 Guido Fawkes, ‘the only man to enter Parliament with honest intent’, sought to end the repressive rule of a King from Scotland who brought repression to the Country. The rule of the Stuarts ended on the battlefield of Naseby, with Absolutism subordinate to the rule of Law and Parliament.

The United Kingdom has now become riven with Cameras, unaccountable Local Authorities losing millions in Iceland. Who are speaking up for the people of this Country, as we are plundered as taxpayers to prop up the Banks, not the MPs that’s for sure.

We want to send a message to Parliament, we want 646 copies of ‘1984′, one to be sent to each member of Parliament – make your pledge at 1984@lpuk.org to send a copy to arrive on November 5th.

If you are opposed to the Big Brother state, then send an email and get allocated an MP. Send them a copy of 1984 and make our point

  • NO to state intrusion into our lives,
  • NO to the Big Brother and Nanny States,

1984 is NOT an instruction manual.

    The target has been exceeded now, good on you for supporting LPUK.

    I’m sending one as well. I bought two copies because I fancied reading it again. I know it is online but sometimes it is nice to have it dead-tree style.
