And will she follow the direction of her electorate to vote to leave the EU. Or will she bow to Josef Corbyn

She changes like the wind this one. Or should I say whatever suits her at the time.

She should be a Liberal by rights.

I like her, and I would like her a lot more if she backs the new withdrawal bill, and votes for it on Saturday, because if Labour are not careful, they are going to be annihilated at the next General Election, she should respect the wishes of her constituents, who voted to leave the EU

Her role as MP is to act in a way in what she perceives as the best interests of her electorate. This may not neccesarily what the majority of the electorate actually want and she has no mandate or indeed obligation to go with the majority.

She, in her capacity as MP believes the best option for us is to remain and that's the avenue she went down.

If you don't like her take on it there is no sense in bleating about it like a kid with a full nappy. Do what the grown ups do and just don't vote for her or her party next time around. It's how a democratic parliamentary system like ours works.

Nowt much I can about that opinion Spangler

However can I Suggest next time you vote, you tick the box of a party that mandates their MPs to follow the wishes of the majority of their electorate. Assuming one exists that is.

Alternatively you may be happier emigrating to a country run by a government that doesn't give its population and indeed its officials a democratic right and instead makes every decision for you. North Korea perhaps?

Of course if you think there is any benefit to it you could just keep bleating on about the situation. Nothing will change but I am sure there will be someone out who will agree with you

Yes, 17.4 million, 105,000 of them from Wigan
But being anti democratic and therefor anti british (that's if you are British),
It is you who should emmigrate.

Sorry spangles, that comment just doesn't make any sense, at least to me. Nor can I identify any points you are trying to make. Other than the suggestion I am not British nor support democracy but that is not the case

Can you rephrase it please?

The way I see it your issue is that Nandy didn't support the brexiteers amongst us. Pretty irrelevant in the grand scheme of things because at the end of the day they won the vote.

there'll be a large dent in her majority

I disagree.

I do not support Labour.

I do not sympathise in any way with Lisa Nandy's political views.

Nevertheless, when I have heard her speak on the various issues which have been put to her in her many appearances on TV, it has been noticeable that she has been quite reflective of how issues will relate to those whom she represents.

I do not like her views, but will give her credit for not simply citing an ideological position, but considering more than MPs usually do how issues relate to her constituency.

sad dog perhaps if she had stated publicly before her being elected. that she would never adhere to the voters wishes if it undermined her strong moral principles ,then perhaps voters may not have made her wigan's mp.
every action as a reaction,perhaps said voter's may turn their backs on her has she has turned her's, unwisely against the electorate wishes.

Zanzibar Spangles said, "105,000 of her constituents are to be ignored then in favour of 39,000?"

Notwithstanding, the total electorate, of Lisa Nandy's constituency, is less than 75,000. The results were 63% 'leave' to 37% 'remain'.
It follows that, approximately, "47,000 of her constituents are to be ignored in favour of 28,000?"


Lisa Nandy is a known Marxist, particularly favouring the principals of THIS MON !

Meanwhile Caroline Flint (Lab) whose constituency voted to leave by 69% to 31%
had been threatened with deselection by her party if she voted in favour of her electors.

Unlike Nandy she told them were to go and
did the right thing

I like her, I've seen her on telly many times and I think she knows her stuff, and wants to do the best for all her constituents. Problem is in a general election I can't vote for her, which would be the first time I've haven't voted Labour ever in an election, because of her so called leader. I'd sooner put my hand in the fire before voting for that ultra left wing loon.
