Though technically true, in this party-driven system, the MPs are kept in-line with what the PM wants. In theory you’re voting for an MP to represent you, but it does feel like in practice you vote for an MP to represent their leader.

Hmm… interesting. I thought they were. I guess I’m not paying close enough attention.
