I have always liked and admired Kate Hoey for her constantly being independently bloody minded and not being lobby fodder. Individuals like her are becoming fewer and fewer which is greatly to the detriment of Parliament. I DON'T want MP's who - like the Ruler of the Queen's Navy "I always voted at my Party's call And I never thought of thinking for myself at all".
I am deeply concerned that the route to becoming an MP is more and more via the parties - Special Advisers for example - is now the norm and that the experience of life outside politics is deminishing. There are exceptions of course - Liam Fox & Nadine Dorries are both medically trained - but they are now becoming fewer and fewer much to Parliament's detriment.
