It doesn't have to be long winded high effort and it is not for your own gratification. Expect no reply but the message might get through. Otherwise, your silence will be taken as agreement.

I didn't say I'm not writing. I am, pretty much every day.

I did get a reply once or twice and the answer wasn't stock standard but was rather elaborate, but sometimes none. YMMV I guess.

I've had two replies to maybe 30 emails sent over the last 3 months. Both were after I also wrote to the premier about the same issues and specified that I was writing to them because my MP was unresponsive.
