Time to take back power
The issue of MP's expenses has highlighted the need for constitutional change, the impotency of MP's who are left to rubber stamp government legislation having been paid off by an expenses regime that positively invited them to make outlandish claims that had nothing to do with their work. At the same time the business of government is controlled from outside parliament, with the chamber itself left with only a handful of MP's in attendance, with the Prime Minister hardly ever attending except for Prime Ministers Questions, and party whips ensuring legislation is passed irrespective of its merits.
This needs more than a change of government, its needs a new constitution, electoral reform to ensure MP's are elected by a majority of the electorate, an end to the overwhelming power of the Prime Minister and a new politics based less on tribal loyalties and more on cross party support to make the best decision.
I want the right to sack my MP
I want to know MPs can't be bought off by party donors
I want the power of government to be cut down
I want my vote to count.
