Surely MPs are often voting on things that don't affect their own constituents, like those that have urban areas voting on things to do with the countryside and vice versa. What shall we do about that? Nothing, surely. because although mps are supposed to be representing their constituents (like when they bring forward specific points and papers and that), they're not always supposed to be thinking 'now how will this be affecting Mrs Jones at no. 32' - isn't it supposed to be more general than that?
er there are bound to be other examples. If it wasn't so late. But it's just that the Scotland/Wales/England thing is more obvious perhaps.
If they want to change the voting system or at least talk about it seriously for a change, I guess that'd be a good thing, as it's not ideal is it.
