Suggested Text

Today here at You Didn't Win, we've been busy checking out printers and designing stuff for our campaign. In the next few days you'll see our design for a pre-printed You Didn't Win card you can send if you don't want to send one of your own. Don't get us wrong - we'd love as many people as possible to send unique cards bearing our message to Cameron - but we also want to make it as easy as we can for people to join in. So if people want a pre-designed card that they just need to pick up and sign, or download online, we'll provide that.

In a similar sense, we'd love people to write their own unique messages to our new Tory overlords on your cards, but if people are struggling, we're happy to provide a suggested message. So here, from the postcard design we've been working on, is the text of our message to Mr C:

Dear David,
                   One year ago today, the results of the 2010 UK General Election were announced. Those results showed that no party had won a parliamentary majority strong enough to form a government on their own.

Nobody won the 2010 election. That includes you.

However, recent misguided statements from your Chancellor suggest you and he have forgotten this fact. You think you did win, and that justifies your policies. This is worrying.
So we, the people of Britain, would like to take the opportunity to remind you that YOU DIDN’T WIN. You failed to carry enough of the electorate to give you a mandate for your extremist, ideologically-driven policies. We request that you acknowledge this, show some humility, and start governing on behalf of the majority of voters in this country who did not vote for the policies contained in your manifesto.
                                                Yours sincerely,
                                                                               YOU DIDN'T WIN!
