Speaking of Vicky Ford...other highlights of her voting record include:
"Consistently voted against higher taxes on banks"
Why would someone who worked for JPMorgan Chase then Bear Stearns (reputable institutions!) take this position?

Is there no other member of the nursing profession the #bbcqt audience could hear from?
Perhaps one who doesn't earn a chief exec's salary like Donna?

Last up it's Philippa Whitford of the SNP, who, almost unbelievably for a #bbcqt guest, shows up well in terms of her voting record.
