:o

So, what do you think? Is he right about Cameron? Or is he just working to try and boost his political career?

Also, should MPs be allowed to defect without standing for re-election in their constituencies?

Discuss.

Sounds like a bandwagon. Whilst you can argue that Cameron doesn't stand for much, he does at least keep his party under thumb, and retain an amount of dignity.

And I personally think that if someone is going to defect, they should have a re-election for who they stand for. With our current policy, if someone planned to give the BNP a seat and so stood for a "safe seat" in that area then defected when they got in, it could mean we'd have a load of people from parties like UKIP in seats.

Bad. <_<
