Problem: Some MPs put career before country

MPs frequently have a lot at stake.

  • A career based on the party
  • Public standing as an MP has benefits, tangible and intangible
  • Backing of the party machine at election.

Not surprising then, that some, in the last few years, have been seen to put their own re-election ahead of their own judgement about what’s best for the country
