There are many passionate and principled MPs, it's just that the unprincipled careerists tend to form most of the cabinet.
I don't think voting labour to stop the torys will help. If they do stay in power of course it would be fantastic not to have a tory government, but a stay in opposition or even death might be the reality new labour needs to face. Given the cuts the torys are proposing and the financial incompetence they've already demonstrated they could well be heading to become more unpopular than even the current government. Leaving space for something new? Too optimistic?
If they do stay in power you will have the fact you voted them in to bear for another 4,5 or 8 years.
