Agreed. Although this is not an all or nothing proposition. I don't suggest we do away with party affiliations in parliament or even the idea of party discipline. However, we could loosen the grip of the parties, have more open votes and see a little more backbone in our backbenchers. Mrs. Thatcher could talk about the tradition of independent backbenchers in UK I'm sure.
