Sent a reminder to Lefroy that his job is to represent his constituents, that and nothing else will do over Brexit. His constituents voted leave and he must therefore follow their wishes
Suggest others also remind him of this

Thanks for the reminder.
As a result I've also emailed him and reminded him that I voted to remain and he should therefore follow my wishes.
I think it's the overall vote that matters, not just your vote
Jeremy Lefroy supports Theresa May's 'deal' and will, almost certainly, vote for it. In the event that a majority support the 'deal', then you will have to decide if it meets your expectations.Sent a reminder to Lefroy that his job is to represent his constituents, that and nothing else will do over Brexit.

Well May's deal is going to be as completely shit as no deal so does it really matter.And this is exactly what is wrong with English politics today...well one of the things anyway!! It should not matter what Lefroy thinks or doesn't think, or what his opinion is, he's in parliament to represent the wishes of the people who voted for him. His constituency voted to leave the EU! I'm aware that means not every one did!
But then, in a subsequent general election, the 'people of Stafford' voted for him and his policies. Which should take precedence? The first vote, or the more recent vote?And this is exactly what is wrong with English politics today...well one of the things anyway!!

A similar scenario was repeated around the Country. A large number of people voted Leave in a referendum and then promptly voted for a whole bunch of Remain MPs. Let's not just blame the MPs; we, the people, helped create this perfect storm.
To save you time just blame one ex MP
He asked the idiots
The idiots have spoken
That's what happens when you ask idiots to make a decision based on idiotic voices in the idiots heads
Never ask the people anything
Asking the idiots a third time is simply insanity

He is in parliament to represent the views of the people he works for, few, if any, of whom are members of this Forum.he's in parliament to represent the wishes of the people who voted for him.
Bit harsh. I work with some very intelligent people and every single one of them voted leave and could justify their decision with well researched and thought out reasons. Not one of those reasons was immigration or racism. In fact one of the people I work with is Spanish and she said she'd vote leave given the chance! I know this doesn't fit with the narrative of buses and election fraud....
