      How frustrated are you by our political system? How many talented MPs are wasted and views ignored because of two-party politics? #AskTim

          .If I had a £ for everytime I've been asked why I don't join @UKLabour if I want to become an MP I'd be able to fund a brilliant campaign ;)

          Hahah everyone says that if I ever want to go into politics then I'll never ever get anywhere as a LD. Utter crap.

          I find it odd people think that being an MP or councillor is the objective rather than standing up for what you believe in & changing lives

          I know! You don't have to be an MP or councillor to change things- just have listen, be open-minded and work with others.

          Yep! What kind of people would you be to change your values in an attempt to grab power? Well, you'd be a Tory, I guess...

          I mean I feel like values change with experience but I just think it's so important people get to see ALL alternatives.

          Without a doubt. My values have changed beyond belief. Can't even recognise who I used to be.

        Good point, in some areas, the @Conservatives could use a slug as a candidate and it would win :(

          Cheers, Tim! You're great and I hope you change our politics for the better, firstly by getting us a say on the final EU deal! All the best!

          Another point: a party leader just answered my question within minutes via video. My local Tory MP happily ignores me at any opportunity.

        If FPTP is so heavily rigged in favour of two parties, then what does that say about the Liberals who were once one of those two?
