From: Your Name <you@example.com> Subject: Don't Pay the Bondholders - IT'S NOT OUR DEBT Dear TD/Senator, I write to demand that the so-called "debt" of 1.25bn Euro (one billion, two hundred and fifty million) due to be paid to UNSECURED Anglo bondholders be not paid. Since the Irish people had no hand in this debt; we do not consent to paying it. Since the Irish people will not benefit from its payment; we do not consent to paying it. Since Ireland has no moral or legal duty to pay this debt; we do not consent to paying it. It would be a very simple exertion for you not to pay this debt; all you need to do is take the pen that is about to sign the cheque, and put it back in the drawer. Again, and finally, WE DO NOT CONSENT TO PAYING THIS DEBT. Regards, Your Name , p.s. Your Personal Statement

Dear TDs, Senators, and President Higgins,

We, Irish citizens, are very concerned about our democracy.

We believe that whatever decision is made regarding the Fiscal Compact treaty will have long-term and far-reaching effects on our society - on our children, our elderly, ourselves, and our social structures - effects that will far outlive the life of this government.

For this reason, we insist that, as citizens of this state, we have a right to partake in deciding whether or not Ireland should sign up to this treaty.

We are currently suffering the effects of decisions made on our behalf that many of us given the choice would not have made, (such as the bank guarantee scheme and others) and for that reason we are demanding that  from now on we must be consulted and have our will taken into account.

We demand to be asked about this new agreement by referendum before our government puts it into Irish law.

(The point of this email is not to advocate for a YES or a NO vote - simply for us to be given the choice of voting YES or NO.)

Regards,

Please DO NOT FORGET to put your name (and address if you wish) to the end of the email.
