However I thought the Labour guy was a particular evil sly kind of weasel in the way he explained about how his voters wanted him to vote on article 50 vs what he wanted to do.
Think its time political classes understood that they don't get the choice of how they vote. They are there to enact the will of the people they represent.
A MP or any politician on a party ticket is there to represent their party first so needs to follow the party line unless it is a free vote. If they don't, on the rare occasions they need to protest against government policy they will not be able to gain the support, respect and help of their political colleagues both in their own party and across party to change government policy.
This is one of the reasons Corbyn has difficulties with Labour MPs in his own party as he's rebelled too much under other Labour leaders."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

If you don't use your democratic right then as far as I'm concerned you can f*** off and I won't listen to your moans or other comments.

Originally posted by d000hg View PostNot voting IS your democratic right. On balance I'd support your "protest/spoiled vote" argument rather than "just vote for someone" but deliberately not voting rather than being too lazy to vote is a legitimate choice.
That's not how it works at all. The whole idea is we vote in people and delegate a lot of responsibility to them as people who have more knowledge and (in theory) wisdom. That is their job and they get paid a decent salary for it. Direct democracy is a bad idea.Comment

Indeed. Not voting when you hold a view is deserving of attack - but I don't agree with Sue's "you MUST vote" argument.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
