    Anyone have a database of contact details for TDs and local councillors they'd like to share ?

    I'm looking for a list of all TDs here in Cork and all the local councillors too, but I'm sure a database of all TDs in the country would be really handy for others that want to start a letter writing campaign.

    Howard has a great form letter here that I might base my letter on:

    http://www.anchor-net.com/fbi/whatcanyoudo.htm

    I was also thinking of making anyone that comes around looking for votes in the next few weeks to send a letter to Mary O'Rourke about getting bandwidth to the last mile. I'll promise them a vote (won't mention what preference ) if they promise to send a letter to Mary highlighting the general homeuser and small business users plight.

    Would it be too much if I asked them to sign a contract ? :P Of course in that contract they can't make me promise I'll vote for them since thats vote buying. :P

    There's a table in the IrelandOffline database yellum, we'll be releasing it rsn. On the other topic, we'll be releasing flyers for distribution to canvassers rsn too. This will include a request for the candidate to contact /us/ with their policies on the issues concerned.

    Adam, Uhm, what do you mean by the interface, you mean the design ? I'm not a designer (praise the jesus ! ) , let me know how I can help though.

    Thanks Tim for that. Very handy.

    Irishguy, thanks didn't think of checking there.

    I'll put a list together for the Cork area of TDs and councillors.

    Nah, I meant the MySQL interface Yellum, someone in the MWG has already produced a UI. Doesn't matter, I'll fire something together in the next couple days.
