Our MP, who is a fairly senior minister, visits every year and spends quite a bit of time chatting to everyone and brings chocolates in. I don't particularly like the guy and don't accept his skanky chocolates, but hey its christmas and at least he makes the effort :)

ours was a prominent cabinet member, now he's not, makes no difference as he was/is seldom seen anywhere near his constituency never mind the d.o.

Ha! Ours is the MP who got so p*ssed up in the House of Commons he couldn't vote! Haven't seen him yet..................

Our home MP is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard. I button holed him and wrote to him about council employees delivering council tax letters instead of RM. He promised a full inquiry then did eff all. Sat next to me in M&S cafe last Sunday and totally blanked me.

Is there supposed to be a purpose to their visits?

Just a pity Alan is not still around, he has forgot more about representing union members than this shower of clowns will ever learn. Billy, Dave and co. are not fit to tie his shoelaces.
