Lt Kije Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 The government boundary commission is to report back next week, It looks like Labour are to loose 25 seats, The Tories 15 seats and the liberals 10. Now I do agree that their are to many MPs, But I do think it should be done independently so the party in power can not fix it and the other party's can not claim fowl. On a positive note 50 unemployable people are now heading for a job centre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 The Boundary Commission are supposed to be "independent". Anyway, Dave's playing at it imo; they could have saved us £40million by ditching over 300 MPs and merging every two constituencies into one. Then he could start on dumping around 5-600 "Lords" and leaving an elected chamber of 100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted September 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Do you think the boundary commission are independent. It always seems to be the party out of power that looses most, As I said I think it needs to be done, but I do think the commission should be less political and I do think like you they should have got rid of more MPs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Perhaps we could get a quango set up to look into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
