And frankly, many on here bemoan those taking the party line over the wishes and needs of the actual electorate....yet when someone says they will put the constituents first, they are taken out of context and slagged off by people who believe everything they read on the BBC....and I include Graham Jones who tweeted yet another faux pas without getting his facts straight.....why am I not surprised by that
