Frank Field is a fairy left wing Labour MP so no one can accuse him of being a con-dem disciple.The Labour Government commisioned him to do a report on reforms to the Welfare State some years ago. It was a brilliant,honest,fair report with some excellent ideas.So of course the Labour Government immediatly rejected it and he was cast into the wilderness,made a pariah.He was never again asked by them for his opinions,never offered a cabinet post.
The con-dems would be wise to dig out that report and read it with his new one.At least THEY have had the sense to involve him.
If he was my MP I would vote for him and I'm NOT Labour.
