I don't think I like this one bit.
I didn't like it when Belinda or Brison did it, and I don't like it now.
When you're elected, you're elected because you hold certain principles, which are identifiable by your party affiliation. Are aisle-jumpers able to just adopt a whole new philosophy on a whim? Suddenly that National Daycare Program didn't seem so hot when it meant a smaller office and less power?
Wasn't there something about this in our platform, to prevent these kind of whole-new-philosophy-for-power moves? (Update: apparently not.)
Man. Not to mention all the good MPs who've spent years in opposition who deserve cabinet spots now.
Ooh, I am mad.
This was going to be the Best! Birthday! Ever! what with a Conservative PM (one who I really admire) getting sworn in on my birthday, but now I am just mad. Ooh.
