I'm just wondering if our new local MP, Christine Hunt, is ever going to bother replying to any of the letters written to her by people here, or even visit and hold a surgery?
Or does she just represent constituents she likes?

Alas you cannot currently vote, so she doesn't care...
ReplyDeleteFriends and family can and do Anon....that's why they move prisoners isn't it? Well, apart from when they have inspections!! The vote will come....then watch the surgeries in prisons
ReplyDeleteExistentially Anon is quite right. You and your fellow MRPs do not exist; you are ghosts at most. Who writes to ghosts? Queenie's quite right to look forward to a slightly better future, but even then prisons, and therefore prisoners, will not be a local issue and therefore (am I right?) will be of little account to honourable members on the out.
ReplyDelete@ Charles Cowloing...Alas I fear you may be right, If only fair play had a part to play in any of this.
ReplyDeleteDon't wonder for too long Ben, you know it will probably never happen - but what a won derful idea, MP visits prison and is refused entry in case he/she speaks to the press!!
ReplyDeleteI hate to put a downer on these things, but assuming Ben is still held at HMP Shepton Mallet his MP is Tessa Munt, so this poor Christine Hunt woman is probably very confused as to why prisoners keep wanting to speak to her regarding parliamentary affairs.
ReplyDelete@ Anon sbove, Christine Hunt is probably the M.P. of the area Ben lived before he was in prison.
ReplyDeleteThere's no such MP as Christine Hunt. Maybe the editor misread? Seems more likely to be Tessa Munt - and you can see how that could be mis-transcribed!
ReplyDeleteOn another matter, though, I think the MP of a prisoner is the MP for where they lived before in prison. That is certainly the constituency they will be voting in as apostal voter according to the current proposals.
