I was elected to Westminster when I was 25; I was Britain's youngest MP. — © Jo Swinson
I was elected to Westminster when I was 25; I was Britain's youngest MP.
I refused to pair with a Tory MP, I refused all foreign junkets and I've never had a drink in a Westminster bar.
I enjoyed Parliament being a proper elected MP.
There wasn't a Scottish nationalist MP elected at any general election when we were outside the E.U.
There are three main controllers of power here in Britain: the political establishment in Westminster, the BBC (MSM), and the Bank Of England.
Being an MP is quite a strange job, because you do it in two different places. Half the time I'm in Westminster and the other half I'm in my constituency and the job is different in both of them.
I wish more people knew that the only one of the three main parties where not a single MP flipped from one property to the next, and not a single MP avoided capital-gains tax, where every single London MP did not claim a penny of second-home allowance, was the Liberal Democrats.
Rahul Gandhi cannot be a prime minister because he is a citizen of Britain, and his Indian citizenship will be cancelled; he won't even be an MP.
Bangalore needs a honest, passionate and hard-working MP, and I will be that MP.
The first thing I would like to say is that I don't think folk at Westminster - or for that matter at Holyrood - constitute an elite. They are representatives who are elected and who are at the service of voters who can fire them.
If you've got no base, it's very difficult to function as an MP. You cannot be a 'virtual' MP, you must be a proper one.
As an MP, I could hardly meet my constituents' genuine needs as the funds at an MP's disposal are meagre.
I didn't particularly want to go to Westminster - not that there were many seats available or chances for women to get elected. In 1987, Labour sent down 50 MPs, and only one of them was a woman.
An MP is an MP whether male or female.
I've had the honour of being elected as a Labour councillor, MP and mayor, thanks to the hard work of Labour members, and I believe that the will of our membership should be respected.
After I was elected as an MP, there were many who used to criticize me, but I still stood. This I have learnt from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is used to being criticized severally from his days in Gujarat.
As the youngest woman ever elected to Congress, I certainly would not be here today without the passion, dedication, and activism of Elizabeth Cady Stanton.
