MP's Galvanised Into Action.

In an uncharacteristic call to arms MP's have today finally been provoked to righteous indignation. The reason for this? You've guessed it - the boundary changes. After a year of masterly inaction when it comes to the economy, the NHS and the banks - those things that matter to their constituents - our reprsentatives have finally scrambled into action to save themselves. "This goes to the very heart of our democracy," one MP told us, having looked up the word in a dictionary. "We are duly elected representatives and it cannot be right for us to be parted from our expense accounts in such a cavalier manner." "This is nothing short of gerrymandering," another told us after borrowing his colleague's dictionary. "It could mark the end of the coalition," he warned darkly. "Unless, of course, we get a really good golden handshake to assuage our distress and suitable training to teach us what a day's work actually is."
