With the atmosphere in Westminster being highly-charged and tense as it is, I'd like to know what the grassroots think about having non-MPs serve in the cabinet. What do we think of a US-styled structure, where only those who have earned the President's trust and respect are allowed into the Cabinet, and elected representatives focus on representing their constituents to the best of their abilities? We already have respectable members of society elevated to the Lords (eg Lords West and Brown recently), but what about an entire cabinet comprised of non-politicians?
