It will take a lot to stop me voting this time round, although I have consistently voted in every election since 1997.
My main aim will be to vote OUT everything that stinks of the 9th parliament, even the councilor will have to go (although he was never a memeber of the 9th stinker). This will give me great satisfaction and a clear conscience irrespective of how the rest of the country votes. I have a valid voter's card, I intend to use it.

No need to replace a greedy incompetent bunch with another. How do we ensure that the newcomers are committed to UNDOING some of the wrongs the present lot made. For instance a signed petition from all new aspirants that they will halve their salaries would be a good start.
My MP is getting a red Card so is the President. No one deserves to come back for the reasons already stated.
Chris I Applaud you for bringing this issue to light.
ANyway polls show that 90% of mps are going Home never to come back may they be robbed of all the ill gotten wealth
I am a student in the UK and came here two years ago. Last month I recently called home and speaking to my mother learnt how outrageous purchasing a loaf of bread was. i was so annoyed when i know how much the MPs who represent their poor constituents take home. I wondered if Kumekucha knew how expensive life was for the common mwananchi. And here it is, you have said it. They should all go home because none of these representatives is in touch with reality! They are all greedy. I agree that the next salaries for the new parliament should be halved on grounds of humanity.
Considering we're all reading from the same script, perhaps what we should do is identify, screen and pigia debe viable candidates for the next parliament.
By harnessing the power of the net and the numbers of Kumekucha, we can achieve this in record time. Charlie's idea of a signed petition for halving salaries is a brilliant start.
We're all reading from the same page. Why not put it into practice?
How about performance contracts with serious repercussions if the MP does'nt deliver?
