Hello,
I'm trying to provide a 'contact your MP' system for a campaign that I'm
coordinating. I need postal addresses for MPs so that members of the public
can pay the charity that I work for to send an information pack to their local
representative.
I see that addresses are stated on Parliament's website (e.g.
http://www.parliament.uk/biographies/commons/danny-alexander/32109), and I see
that some of the data available, though not the addresses, gets scraped here:
http://ukparse.kforge.net/parlparse/
MPs addresses doesn't seem to be part of what gets scraped however.
If you want to send anything to an MP, just address it to them at their
Commons address:
Name of MP
House of Commons
London
SW1A 0AA
That's where they'll be expecting to get it, and that's where it will
reach them the quickest. Post to the constituency address may not be
picked up until the weekend, and maybe not even then.
