Do people really not understand how our political system works? It's not difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for clarifying. But why mention voters in the first place? Its difficult to keep up with you. Anyway, to answer your question - MPs should stand by his Party regardless of what they say/do? Short answer, No. My comparison of football fans swapping allegiances basically said that. The walk across the floor was for himself. Look at me I have morals and standards. Bollox!!

Well, I get people wanted to give liberal, city dwelling, affluent tossbags a bloody nose. I'm a bit surprised people don't understand the basics of our (really quite simple) political system.

Wankers thought P*kis and Eastern European Gypsies would be deported - that's the uncomfortable truth. Some who voted leave, when questioned didn't even have that racist excuse, they couldn't even muster one reason. It's time to limit the franchise.
