=This is a funny column from the times Do you love your MP.. Hazel. Ian and i forgot the other one.

 

This is a terrible moment for this post. But that’s really the point. I want people to comment here if they have something nice to say about their MP or about British politicians or the political system. Like anyone, I have some very serious criticisms of the conduct of British politicians. In many ways I think our political system is broken. Many of my columns are devoted to the question of how to change it. But there are plenty of places to read that sort of stuff today. I thought we would try something different. Here are a few positive things I think about MPs: I think most work very hard, putting in long hours and working weekends. There may be other jobs that are harder, or less well paid, or more inconvenient. But this doesn’t detract from the hard work MPs do. I think many now do good community work, and are in touch with their constituents’ difficulties. This is not universal, but it is common. No rude rants please………
