Hello everybody
Just a short note to introduce myself. I am a retired ex scientist who is thoroughly fed up with the way British politicians of all parties have run the UK since basically WW2. I've never been so politically motivated in my whole life as I am now and I'm even though people who disagree with my views might dismiss me as a grumpy old git, I don't care. I don't believe politics is a simple left , midlle, right thing - it is multidimensional and none of the current MPs seem to consult their constituents on key topics like EU membership, Crime & punishment, immigration etc. etc. Our system of representation dates back, what 350yrs ? to when communication was basically as fast as a horse could run. I'm in favour of MPs holding regular polls, call them opion polls or referenda whatever you want to but then them voting on the majority view, not the views of a few party managers.
