Yes, many of our Members of Parliament these days lack credibility and are just in it for themselves, BUT, the abuse they receive via Twitter and the rest of social media is absolutely reprehensible!
It is a job and nobody should have to put up with this sort of abuse at any job!
The BBC article today, which states MP receive thousands of abuse daily, is so sad. It has to be addressed and addressed decisively. Whatever it takes. It must be stopped. Whether or not an MP is deemed to be performing or not, they were elected by a majority and it is a job!!!!
The technology is there, to block, find and penalise these abusers. Society has not just become so rotten, it always was rotten, but these sad abusers can just laze about in the rooms doling out abuse by the minute! There must be consequences!
Many MPs now work in fear. They can’t really debate key issues properly. Either way, nobody deserves such abuse in doing their job!
