MPs vote to increase the grip of party politics
Members of Parliament have taken the historic and entirely unsurprising decision to extend the grip of their own narrow, self-serving party patronages by voting for a 100% elected Upper House, demolishing the prospects for anyone entering public who is not beholden to a small self-serving clique.The writing is on the wall now the the MPs have cast their 'advisory' vote. Say goodbye to principled stands, eloquent speeches, detailed policy scrutiny all at a ridiculously low cost. Say hello to the perma tanned, party whipped, self-serving careerists indulging in sofa politics and professional political hackery.
All because the goverment needed some extra pocket money.
These guys have the right idea, albeit with socks.....
