So this guy is elected by his constituents and then decides to go and dick around on TV?

It’s just not good enough- the whole parliamentary process is fubar. We should attract and elect the best amongst us to lead and represent our interests. Instead we get endless talentless clowns.

After the jungle (or whatever) fire the dim c*nt out of a bloody cannon.

It is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it... - Douglas Adams (not the full quote, but enough)

The best? I'd settle for someone with a bit of wit, fresh out of a proper university degree (science, engineering, medicine etc) who simply gave a shit about the country and their constituents, rather than feathering their own nests.

The country is mostly capable of managing itself. MPs don't do an awful lot; which is why they have so much time for writing books, going on TV or having second jobs.
