only if you want to be reelected

But she didnt quit being an mp

yes

2019-03-14 18:42:30 UTC  

She just quit a position

2019-03-14 18:42:54 UTC  

So what is she now?

2019-03-14 18:42:55 UTC  

yeah, quit the Labour front bench

2019-03-14 18:42:55 UTC  

It would be like a senator quiting their position on a committee

yes she left the front bench, she still reps her seat

2019-03-14 18:43:09 UTC  

She's still a Labour MP

this likely means a pay cut

but she's still there

2019-03-14 18:43:34 UTC  

But if you're an MP then you have to be in pRliament right?

2019-03-14 18:43:34 UTC  

Maybe. But its defenately a power cut.

2019-03-14 18:43:44 UTC  

yes, possibly as much as half the salary she was on

you don't have to be present in the Commons if you are a MP

2019-03-14 18:44:38 UTC  

The fact that yall pay different for different positions like that is odd.

2019-03-14 18:45:02 UTC  

We dont pay the speaker or majority/minority or whip positions more.

you could get 80k a year and only go to votes you have to

2019-03-14 18:45:53 UTC  

Well tbh our congress is similar. And you can vote remotely, or just present ie neither way

2019-03-14 18:45:58 UTC  

Wtf

2019-03-14 18:46:12 UTC  

You don't even have to be in parliament? >:(

2019-03-14 18:46:25 UTC  

What if you don't vote as an MP?

2019-03-14 18:46:27 UTC  

you have to be in Parliament to vote

2019-03-14 18:46:35 UTC  

No I mean

2019-03-14 18:46:40 UTC  

Ah they dont do remote?

2019-03-14 18:46:44 UTC  

it's not common practice to be there for every vote

2019-03-14 18:46:44 UTC  

You don't have to be in debates and stuff

2019-03-14 18:46:52 UTC  

In the commons

2019-03-14 18:47:02 UTC  

remote only if in hospital/deathbed scenario

2019-03-14 18:47:34 UTC  

I think they don't even allow that tbh

2019-03-14 18:50:34 UTC  

a lot of procesures have been pussified to "make Parliament a less hostile environment for women"

Our soap opera made it to Vermont

2019-03-14 19:04:14 UTC  

>_>

2019-03-14 19:14:05 UTC  

it a shitshow they just cant decide what they want. the parliament is run by cats

2019-03-14 19:15:37 UTC  

That's true

2019-03-14 19:15:45 UTC  

It's not even that they keep changing their mind

2019-03-14 19:15:53 UTC  

They literally just don't fucking know

2019-03-14 19:15:58 UTC  

They are so incompetent

2019-03-14 19:16:06 UTC  

Either that or just straight up evil
