Wonder how much this farce is costing?

[R1Geezer]

There's a late entry, I'm voting for the Geezer party!

[jake-the-peg]

More to the point imagine what it would cost if MPs resigned every time they wanted some publicity


Sorry that should read "lost a vote on a point of concience"

Personally I'd vote for the Raving mad one - Cow-Girl's not got a hope

[squarebear]

Funnily, enough that's just a couple of miles from where I live. There seems to be pretty mixed reactions from my mates who live round there.

I would go for the Moster Raving Loonies to.
They are the oly ones who seem to be thinking about the bigger issues.:-)

Politicians always accuse others of debating serious issues OUTSIDE parliament and not on the floor of the house. Blair was always criticised for running government away from the house where debating could not take place.

Along comes Tory MP David Davies with a prominent seat on the front opposition bench with the means to get his voice heard and takes the debate away from parliament.

Methinks he has other motives in mind?

I just hope the voters show their contempt for this absurd stunt and vote him out until the General Election proper.
If it was a Council Election they would want more CCTV and surely they think that more DNA testing is better than less. As for 42 days who cares compared to the real issues, inflation, losing jobs

Is he going to re-appear and ask for his job back ?

What does it all achieve,

[Panic Button]

For an intelligent man he has been a proper fool.

He is still smarting about not becoming leader, but this shows he would not have been a good PM.
