When you visit wikipedia in the UK you some times see a banner with information. I'm posting here the content and links of the banner:
> To all our readers in the UK
This Tuesday we need your help. On 5 July 2018, the European Parliament will vote on a new copyright directive. If approved, these changes threaten to disrupt the open Internet that Wikipedia is a part of. You have time to act. Join the discussion. Thank you.

In particular that changecopyright.org link seems organized by Mozilla, and connects you directly with an MEP.
