Dear your MP,

I am writing about the 13,184 premature British deaths from polluted air so far in 2026 — and the 30,000 that will happen by year end. 99% of Britons breathe air above WHO PM2.5 guidance.

Labour's 2024 manifesto contained no direct commitment on air quality. The 2023 draft policy promised a Clean Air Act with a legal right to breathe clean air — and this was dropped before the manifesto was published.

I am asking you to press the government to introduce a Clean Air Act with WHO-aligned PM2.5 targets and a statutory deadline for compliance.

Yours sincerely,
[your name]
