Mp's generally aren't principled people, they are more like weather vanes, as evidenced by hard tories suddenly becoming labour members.

Look at the major policies that have the most affect on how society runs, and you will see very little (if any at all) distance between labour and tories. These are long standing tory positions - it's not the blue rosettes who've moved closer to labour, so what's the saying about something walking like a duck and quacking like a duck?

…yeah, I agree…that’s so off base and so off key because to just change party in such a way, for me…?…is they’re either not committed to any of the values and beliefs that they’ve led the public to believe that they’re committed to in acting for them…?..or they flip flop surface personalities that also doesn’t hold true to belief systems…just not people I would be inclined to put any faith in, whatever party they’re aligned to…it’s become more like a game or swapping about of job/department roles…crazy stuff…
