| Nick, it's very easy to stick to your principles if you have shed loads of dosh and don't actually need to work. Yes Goldsmith has done what he threatened so I imagine he's feeling extremely self righteous and proud of himself. I don't suppose his (soon to be ex) constituents will be terribly overjoyed though; to be left without an MP over a fight that was inevitable he wasn't going to win anyway. I'm sure there are many local issues that still need attention and Zac's hissy fit over Heathrow has not helped his community one little bit. Personally I'd much rather have my MP in situ continuing to help their constituents whenever it's possible, instead of running away because they didn't get their own way over something they'd be powerless to change anyway. |
