I am pleased Ann McIntosh won her seat convincingly. She worked hard as a constituency MP for us, particularly when the Rawcliffe lake flooded so many properties some years back and i supported her. She doesn't use endless, playground, cat calling across the floor of the house at the OTHER SIDE as so many do.

On the first day back, even though they and the Lib Dems are trying to show us a brand new style of consensus government, they fell straight back into the old slanging match as an example for new MPs.

She is also one of the least tainted of the expenses cheats still sitting. Many others had a finger in the pie. Lots had their fists in and others jumped in feet first and wallowed in it, arguing they had every right to do so, when caught.

She will serve her new constituents well. Not as well as they would be with proper proportional representation, but better than with an unfettered full blown Single Party Government.
