I scraped all the MP contact details on scraperwiki at 
https://scraperwiki.com/scrapers/mp-contact-details-from-parliamentuk/

But it looks as though the database has become a bit polluted (with obsolete 
records?) so you might be better off pulling the data from the copy made by a 
former colleague of mine at 
https://scraperwiki.com/scrapers/mp_contact_details_from_parliamentuk/

(I don't know where mySociety gets its data from. I did this before I started 
working for mySociety.)
