This book is the result of frustration and anger with our political representatives. The outrageous expense claims of a significant number of Members of Parliament was the last straw. For decades we have complained that MPs are arrogant, patronising, evasive, contemptuous and insincere. They talk AT voters, rather than listen TO them. They spend more time criticising their opponents than they do explaining their own policies. Now, we can add the term 'dishonest'' to our list of complaints. For decades, MPs have managed to undermine our democracy, and disengage millions of voters. 40% of the UK electorate do not actually vote in general elections. This is monstrous, In the last two years, large numbers of members of the public have written vitriolic blogs on the subject. Unfortunately, in UK, that's the best that we ever do - we are good at complaining, but we never actually do anything effective. This abuse of our system of democracy by Members of Parliament, has to stop. This book suggests how we might do it, by getting more voters more engaged with our democracy. The book is written with three beliefs in mind: Ordinary People can make a difference. Each of us must vote. The loyalties of an MP are, in order to priority, to (1) constituents, (2) Parliament, and (3) party. If we are not prepared do something life-changing for UK democracy in the year of a General Election, then we deserve everything we get.
