When you vote as a member of the public for a candidate, the candidate has at least two components: his own individual morality, etc., and his affiliation to a party. You don't vote for just an independent, because they're not effective. They're much more effective when they're part of a party. You have to have at least these two components of this basket, and often they don't necessarily match, so when I vote for a member of Parliament, I'm making a compromise, believe me.
