It should be law that you're not allowed to represent a constituency unless you've lived there for at least 36 months.

That was my thought too, why's that not a thing already?

Because then the political parties can't parachute inexperienced candidates into safe seats so that:
- The new candidate gets elected in a safe seat and learns the ropes of political life as an MP.
- More experienced candidates can be deployed to marginal constituencies to contest the seat.

If this man is representing your constituency, he thinks you're a mug and you'll vote for a donkey as long as it's got a blue rosette.
Be nice to show him how wrong he is.

I would love to be represented by someone not from the area who, when asked a direct question, simply answers another question entirely that no-one asked about. Really says they have my interests as a constituent at the forefront.
