Sample Email to Euro MP Dear MP Insert Name of MP here, I am writing to you to let you know of my wish to see the British Government make a commitment to return the Parthenon Marbles to Greece. They are an important part of our heritage and culture. They are also an international symbol of democracy. I think that Athens is the best place to see these sculptures. A new museum has been built on the Acropolis, especially for the Parthenon Marbles. I would be very grateful if you could let the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State for Culture Media and Sport know of my views on this matter. I look forward to receiving your response. Yours Sincerely, Insert your name here. (adaptation from Parthenon 2004 Campaign site) Check that you understand what these words mean in this document To insert: to put in.
