Henry Jackson Society   An independent ‘think tank’ of (mainly) Cambridge academics.

The Henry Jackson Society is a non-profit and non-partisan organisation that seeks to promote the following principles: that liberal democracy should be spread across the world; that as the world’s most powerful democracies, the United States and the European Union – under British leadership – must shape the world more actively by intervention and example; that such leadership requires political will, a commitment to universal human rights and the maintenance of a strong military with global expeditionary reach; and that too few of our leaders in Britain and the rest of Europe today are ready to play a role in the world that matches our strength and responsibilities.

Letters to your favourite editor

So that you may submit your 'letters to the editor" of your favourite paper - here are the various Newspapers' e-mail addresses.  In order to get your letter(s) selected for publication (the Daily Telegraph, for example, gets about 700 letters a day - and prints about a dozen!), keep your letter:

Only send your letter on any particular subject to just ONE Paper/Editor at one time. Editors normally will only use 'exclusive' letters.  If you don't get a response from the first paper you write to - THEN you can write to another one, and so on.

Lastly - when writing to papers or magazines about Defence related issues, please include a reference to the UKNDA - ideally after your signature showing yourself to be "A member of the UK National Defence Association".
