Dear [insert name - personal emails work best] ,
I just pledged to Move My Money!
In doing so, I chose to make my money work for a banking sector that values ordinary people, small businesses and ethical and social responsibilities - not bulging bonuses, risky speculation, tax avoidance and unethical investments.
I'll be moving my money on [insert date] . I think you should too!

Dear Dear [insert your MP's name] ,
I just joined the Move Your Money campaign and pledged to make my money work to support a local, ethical and socially useful alternative to the mainstream banking sector. By moving my money, I am opting out of a system that will:
-
Gamble my savings on risky investments, safe in the knowledge they are being underwritten by the taxpayer
-
Invest in unethical companies and unsavoury regimes
-
Keep starving small business of credit
-
Pay their banker's bulging and inequitable bonuses
-
Avoid paying the tax that could help fix our deficit
And I'm supporting the alternative - a banking system that works for ordinary people, communities and society.
As my representative, please show your support for this campaign by visiting www.moveyourmoney.org.uk and pledging too. I look forwarding to hearing from you on this matter.
Kind regards,
[your name]
