Our MP is a tory. His dad was the MP for the constituency from 1979 until 1997 when he lost to Labour. He had been a local councillor for a long time and was by all accounts quite a decent, conscientious and hard working constituency MP.
His son, our current MP since 2010 in stark contrast is a lazy self-publicist whose argument when all else fails is that 'it's government policy', who has his office find local good news then asks for an invite to turn up for a photoshoot, and who does sweet FA.
One of my clients has a matter which he is now involved in and even she, a staunch vote tory at all costs type, has had to admit that he is "worse than useless": her words.
