  <p>mySociety services produce a lot of useful (and interesting!) data. Over the years we’ve often made components or the results of mySociety services available through <a href="/datasets/?category=apis">APIs</a> or as open data to download (such as our <a href="/sources/everypolitician/">EveryPolitician data</a>).</p>
  <p>This data portal brings all our published data together in one place to help people make the use of all the data products we provide.</p>
  <p>If you end up doing something interesting with the data, please <ahref = "mailto:hello@mysociety.org">let us know!</a></p>
