That said, how many smart and compassionate people would choose to go into politics anyway? Lots at a local level, for sure. I can understand why people are more sceptical about MPs though. That said, Lembit Öpik aside - and even he seemed all right in his Gosforth councillor days before he went off the deep end - the extensive sample of two current MPs I can claim to know in any kind of personal capacity are both what I'd call smart and compassionate. Of course, neither of them are anywhere near actual power.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been quite a journey for her. She joined in order to make Sunak the next leader then jumped to No.10 in order to host daily televised briefings. Then that idea was sacked off after spending over £2m on a briefing room. So she was moved to COP26 spokesperson (not that I ever saw her speaking about it) and has now been publicly humiliated with her career in tatters to the extent that only her husband will be able to employ her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've now confirmed that he wasn't at the party but are still unable to confirm whether there was a party. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
