Dear
Thank you for your letter of 14th February. I do not believe that you have any right whatsoever to interfere with my election address, especially as it meets the 180 word requirement.
As I am seeking advice 1 shall be grateful for the following information.
1. The bye-law which limits the election address to 180 words and authorises you to unilaterally change a candidate's election address.
2. Please indicate what constitutes a 'word' and how long it shall be.
3. Please indicate the bye-law or any other authority which forbids the use of a web site address in an election address.
I shall be very grateful for a speedy reply so that the matter can be
concluded.
A reply can be sent to me via e-mail (prems@essex.ac.uk).
Yours sincerely
Prem Sikka
