For me, it's Caroline Lucas - bright, articulate, principled

GrannyTwice Fri 17-Apr-15 22:58:20

That was to Charleygirl

GrannyTwice Fri 17-Apr-15 22:57:30

Just looked him up - he seems a bit underwhelming- is this fair?

durhamjen Fri 17-Apr-15 22:53:47

I looked Dennis Skinner up, GrannyTwice. I didn't think he was still standing, but he is, at 83.

Charleygirl Fri 17-Apr-15 22:46:08

Gareth Thomas is my local MP, would anybody like him?

jo1book Fri 17-Apr-15 22:45:24

Nick Clegg. He means well

Angela Eagle,Honest hardworking available.
Its a pity she is not in the Party I support I wish she was.

GrannyTwice Fri 17-Apr-15 21:57:55

That's a shame soon - it really isn't that simple. There are some good MPs - I think the ones named above are good examples

I dont trust my political judgement. And I dont trust them.

soontobe Fri 17-Apr-15 21:47:04

None of them. I have lost my confidence in all of them.

annodomini Fri 17-Apr-15 21:05:11

Did you really expect me to read the instructions?

GrannyTwice Fri 17-Apr-15 20:40:04

Well I'm having another go - Denis Skinner a real socialist

durhamjen Fri 17-Apr-15 20:29:41

Caroline Lucas - we need her.

janeainsworth Fri 17-Apr-15 20:13:26

Can we have more than one go GT or is that against the rules too?

I've already reported it, GT.

GrannyTwice Fri 17-Apr-15 19:40:34

Agree ana- anno, I'm afraid I will have to ask for the post to be deleted as it is against the rules

Ana Fri 17-Apr-15 19:31:16

Too many words, anno! grin

annodomini Fri 17-Apr-15 19:29:56
