I respect what Mr. Coughlan is saying but it is not so much about the office but rather the role of a Member of Parliament - what we do. To take a simple example, we fob in here and nobody seems to take account of what I do in my constituency office. I could stay in bed for the rest of the year once I fob in 120 days here. It might not go down well with the constituents.
