  • I have a mate who used to be pretty high up in the Labour Party. He said that MPs, particularly in London, spend most of their time dealing with housing and immigration problems for their constituents (for individuals, not big picture stuff).

    I've no doubt that Corbyn would be good at that kind of thing, it was when he actually tried to do big picture politics that it all went wrong.

  • That's interesting. It aligns with something in Ian Dunt's last book around the issue with MPs effectively being asked to do two jobs; running the country and running the country.
