Correct. They use their judgement to vote in ways that (in their view) are for the best for their constituents. That isn't necessarily "the wishes" of those constituents.

Remember that an MP's constituents include everybody living inside the constituency, and not just the people that voted for them (or even just those eligible to vote). It's everybody.



Well they aren't random, but yes, pretty much. Anybody can claim anything on the campaign trail and then not follow through on it (*ahem Leave on the 31st October*), the whole point of democracy is that you can hold people up to scrutiny and then use the process to elect someone else in their stead once they are a known liar.



Now you're just being facetious. But I do think strong political parties are part of the problem.



That is literally how it works. I'm not defending it as a great system but that's literally what we have. This is of course not true of the referendum, where the liars have won and we have no democratic recourse to fix it later.

Who told lies mate ?
 
Corbyn should lead with a minority/temporary govt. till the end of January. Why don't Lib Dems not support him becoming a PM? Surely way better than B. J.?

Because he is a liability and a clown mate.

I understand some see him that way, but still can't they see BJ may come back even more powerful with the GE that early? This is a great chance to reverse some politicial decisions taken by Tory govts.

If it’s Johnson or Corbyn, soz but Johnson wins all day long.

That maybe the case but I dont think he will have a large majority if indeed any at all. It will be for me a devastating indictment of the way that the right wing media have conducted themselves against Corbyn. Disgusting.

I’ve been bombarded with Lib Dem leaflets already where I live. It’s a 50/50 seat for them and Conservatives. No chance of labour.
It’s these seats where it’s won and lost.
( in my humble opinion like )

Sounds daft, but the first thing he needs to do is look bloody smartly dressed.
The old arse political views will be trotted out, but if he looks more professional then he can bat them away.

This is a wind up surely? Jesus fecking wept lad, give me some proper reasons for your original statement...please
 
I realise Mellow is a true red labour, but you need to make Boris look like the bumbling idiot.
Not make ‘well that’s just Boris’ acceptable.
