Around 200 eager beavers have applied for the safe Conservative seat of West 
Suffolk to succeed Richard Spring. I believe they include a recently elected MEP.
Being elected an MEP back in June was a huge privilege, and I do not understand how they can now renege on pledges they made to constituents during what was a very tough election campaign and decide to switch jobs.
The same obviously goes for UKIP’s Nigel Farage who is standing against the Speaker John Bercow. You’ve already been elected into office for five years, doesn’t that count for anything?
Quite right, Ellee
Couldn’t agree with you more. It shows a disrespect and contempt for both the institution they were elected to and the electorate. If they can’t be trusted to give respect to their existing voters then you definitely can’t trust them to show respect to thier new institution or voters.
Yes, I also agree with you Stuart Bruce.
Well Ellee its no worse that Little Squeaker Bercow apparently being so panic stricken at the though of having to stand up to Mr Farage that he’s attempting to change the rules so that a Speaker is given a ” special ” seat which only MPs have a vote on !
No wonder the Tories loath the man .
