    Maybe dislodge your current MP to a totally new one: Lets throw the cards in the air see what happens.

    We could go totally radical vote for greens or independent candidates. personally though I really like my MP and think she does a fantastic job.

    Depends on whether you think coalition governments are a good thing or not I guess.

    A/ My local MP is a new one. She is a dim-witted Cameron babe, identical in almost every respect to the dim-witted tokenistic Blair babes of the last shower.

    B/ Anyone who votes for a Green might as well vote himself back to the Stone Age.

    C/ The choice on my last ballot paper did not include an independent.

    D/ Unlike Lemonjelly and the other Labour supporting tribal clowns, I am not so brain damaged that my memory of the last Labour government has been completely erased from memory.

    The system is broken. Voting for more of the same admirably fulfils Einstein's definition of madness. http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/26032.html

    Its for this reason we should have a box for "none of the above" on the ballot paper.If it means a re-election in certain areas then so be it at least the electorate would choose the candidate they did/do want.
  • Well my new 12 year old wankshaft Tory MP is a right one. Quickly trying to use his position to enrich his friends through a regional development grant, next he was threatening legal action against a fellow constituent who had the temerity to campaign against him using a caricature.

    If you think about it, suing anyone who objects to Tory plans to enrich Tories is probably seen as good on the CV by the party whips....

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.
