Please note that in this episode we talk a lot about the importance of being vocal with local politicians so that they can take your concerns to the Prime Minister on your behalf. We want to remind you that this applies to many issues - some happening locally - like the one we discuss in this episode, and some happening internationally.
If you feel passionately, for example, about a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, you can write to your MPs about that. If you'd like to see your tax dollars go to a specific cause, you can write to your MPs about that too.
We are lucky to live in a democracy. Let's not forget that it's our responsibility and our civic duty to communicate our desires and concerns to the people we elected.
