When you think that Greg represents around 60,000 people, which is about the norm, I'll bet he thinks he could do with a leg up not heaping more representation on him by say merging with Rossendale. On the whole I think MPs give good value for money, the press do seem to go OTT sometimes when it comes to slagging of parliament. People always think that MPs have an easy life when they see the ommons Chamber with very few people taking part, but most of the work an MP does is on in th Chamber but in committee and of course the constituncy.
