Subject:	Re; political   honesty   &   ACCOUNTABILITY
In   regards    to  political     honesty    and  accountability  ,it  is    
very
important    to    our    trading  partners   that   at all  times   we can  
be  trusted    with   our  word.
I   also   think    that   any   person   standing   for   parliment   must   
  not   
be  a  person    jumping   from  one   party    to  another   ,example
this    election   labour     then  independent     then   back  to  labour   
I
don't    feel     they    have    the    intrests   of  the   people    at  
heart   you
must    have    accountability    from    the  public  or   that   they    
don't
have  the   confidence    in  their    party  they should   have.
All    people     applying   for     enrollement     for  the    elections    
  should   get    their    forms   from  the    Post  Office    not     the   
 sitting
 members      office.
All   members    of  parliament  and    their     staff    should     pay    
cash
 for  all   their     meals     NO  CREDIT     they  get  enough     money

Any    good  politican     should     not    worry     about    their   seat  
 if     
 they   are    doing   a  good  job    ,not    only    looking    after    
their
  country    but  their    people    as   well
