Separation of executive and legislature

[Floppy]

This probably needs more detail, but I've been meaning to write it for ages. It seems wrong to me that the government and legislature are the same, and that MPs are effectively muzzled when they take a government job. It also seems to me that we should be able to appoint the best minds to the right roles, not the best politicians or campaigners.

Hmm. I could have sworn that I'd proposed something like this already :/

Anyway, hell yes 👍 - this is one of my personal bug bears with Parliament.

Basically a good idea. Perhaps a bit too idealistic, but nevertheless deserves inclusion in the manifesto. 👍

[PaulJRobinson]

Yep. 👍

Yaaayyyyyy!
