Considering that traditionally Hyndburn is a low pay constituency for many, and that some of the lowest paid people will be worse off, I personally really hopes he stands his ground, and fights for the people he represents.
Who are the 39 rebel Labour MPs? | Politics | guardian.co.uk |
I should like to think so but I wouldn't be surprised if he says one thing and does another after the Post Office fiasco.
Why did he pose for photographs in the paper, protesting about P.O. closures and then in parliament he voted
for the closures?
That question was never answered and I doubt him very much after that, I'm afraid.
