  1. The majority of our MP’s are coward bench warmers that rarely participate in debate!
    In fact there are many issues from our communities that can be raised in parliament but our MP’s don’t bring them up.
    We have been waiting for a constitution for years and in that time how many bye laws hae MP’s actually debated in order to simply improve our lives whilst we are waiting for the illusive constitution!
