I don't know what your possibly sarcastic reference may be.
However it's the Party system that stops most MPs from even just voting with their conscience.
Parliamentary procedure and other elements too.
They are all human.
Plus until I was 18 I was a Con supporter.
I voted Lib Dem to hopefully see a coalition in 2010.
So I can and DO see the good in all parties.
Even though now I've found my more social conscience home In and with Labour.
Although I'm sure I'll have many complaints and strong arguments at times in the party.
However when there's a leader who acts dictatorial and rides over others feelings.
Like when he threw out long standing and more moderate MPs from the party for daring to be against his plans in 2019.
Who then deceives and lies to parliament and the people.
Who was found to have acted unlawfully with power by the 2 highest courts of the UK.
Well such a man wouldn't get my admiration or support.
I don't and never have disliked the Conservative party, I DO dislike intensely all its done and stood for in its heartless policies towards the poorest, weakest, vulnerable, sick and disabled with the Lib Dems and alone since 2010.
I'd have had no similar dislike for the Thatcher or Major governments.
However I was only born in 1992.
You'd actually be possibly surprised if you ever bothered to find out, that many Conservative supporters and members admire too many in the Labour party.
I've canvassed in elections, niggling at Conservative canvassers who did the same with me.
Then we've all gone for coffee afterwards.
You'd be amazed how many Conservative and Labour supporters and members are friends and in some cases close friends.
You slate politicians as awful people.
That's not the case at all.
I know many and I believe most from ALL parties are decent people, unlike your view of politicians.
Most try their very best for little thanks.
It's policies I judge parties on, even my own party.
I detest the policies to the vulnerable,sick and disabled from this present government.
Which is why I slam it more.
Even moreso with this dangerously deceitful and compulsive liar the Cons have inflicted on the Nation as PM.
I hope that may again explain why this Labour member and voter can see good in other parties.
Including the Conservative party !!

You make it sound like past Labour governments never did anything wrong or made any mistakes..
Politicians and political parties are all as corrupt and inept as each other ... always have been always will be imho
