He stood up for what he believed in when he voted against the 42-day rule in Parliament. Imagine what would happen if every MP stood down everytime something was passed through Parliament that they didn't agree with, thus forcing a bye-election? And it's a sham because there was absolutely no need for it and it has changed nothing.
