Now, the whole 'democratic process' really works (or can work if not

similar things (when much of it is unlikely to come to fruition) you
can't really use logic / common sense at all.

My new theory is just vote for your MP if he's done good things locally
and for someone else if not.

You'd get a load of people in parliament who actually did something for
someone, proved as good listeners and were capable of negotiating for a
result.

That would be a start...
