Some MPs are as shallow as a worm's grave. |

There is politics and then there is populism. Populism was espoused by Mosley (Black Shirts), Eva Peron, Mussolini, Putin, Herr Schwickelgruber, Salmond, le Pen and the oaf currently running Hungary et al. It should not be confused with politics. Certainly W S Churchill was well aware of the difference. Nigel Faraj and his motley crew of chancers obviously not. |

Winston Churchill 'crossed the floor' several times in his political career. Just a thought. |

I'd rather not vote for the re-election of a 'turncoat' MP, who sways with the wind direction. |

I suppose it could be said that the naughty government minister was just proving he had nothing to hide :-D |

What is the matter in today's society that people want to take pictures of themelves in "naughty" mode and send them to other people ? |

With these defections, the reports today of a Tory minister sending naughty pictures, and the pressure on David Cameron from his Eurosceptic MP's - I am reminded of the last few months of John Major's government ;-) |

How is he going to keep his promises to the electorate if he gets elected as a UKIP member? |

Be interesting to see who the Tories put up against him. |

According to one on-line newspaper, "I will resign my seat in parliament, trigger a by-election and stand for UKIP." |

Public service shows eventually that (most) MPs are defective .... |

One of the challenges of British politics on both sides is the astonishing imbecility of much of the back bench with a few rays of sunlight chairing select committees. The Ukip tendency though plumbs new depths with MPs attracted to Faraj's mumbo jumbo in much the same way as Benefits street's love affair with Wonga. Either way they are seeking the impossible. |

He said it was because he found that it is impossible to keep promises he gave to his voters as a Conservative MP at the last election. |
