Shouldn’t there also be an award for local MP of the year?
Say, like, for the MP who’s done the most work for their constituents and Northern Ireland in Westminster and dedicated themselves entirely to their parliamentary duties and holding the Westminster Executive to account?
At least it might be a way of holding the expenses grabbers to account….
Johnny, we’re wrapping them into the ‘politician of the year on Monday with the MEPs, Peers etc…
