My vote goes to Mike the Headless Chicken.
Good point. With supposed devolution, and Scotland having it's own very, very expensive parliament, why are there still Scottish Members of Parliament at Westminster?

When I lived in Glasgow I had an MP in the Scottish parliament, an MP at Westminster and an MEP in Brussels. Total waste of money.
