A big part of the system which is a problem imo is the whipping. They are elected to represent us, but when in Parliament have little choice but to vote as told. Yes, they can vote against the whip, but it's goodbye to any chance of advancement. I know some will say that they shouldn't be there to go up the ladder, but I don't agree. Nothing wrong if wanting to add influence, for the right reasons.

To see Ministers etc wheeled out to defend the PM has been thoroughly cringeworthy, but again, they have little choice.

I have no doubt that although on the face of it they are behind the PM, there are those planning their leadership bid. Sunak has shot his chance, hopefully Patel too. Truss must a front-runner, Javid up there and possibly Zahawi. Jeremy Hunt from the back-benches. What's happened to Gove? Not seen him for ages.
