Before I end this conversation about local representation, would it be fair to say that there is an element of the local representative affecting the way someone goes to the polls to cast a vote, but perhaps what you are touching on more is the political culture that exists right now, where constituents, after the election, expect to have someone to hold accountable vis-à-vis their relationship to Parliament or to government? Is that an equally important aspect of the conversation we are having right now?
