I didn't email the respective candidates, but rather the parties themselves.
Todate, only the UK IP have bothered to reply - they simply said that it's 
their policy to pull out of Europe completely, so the issue of Software

were not in Europe then they can pass whatever patent laws they want but they 
won't affect us.
