Protestors Begin Occupation of London - Poll Shows Only 1 in 4 Britons Trusts Their MPs - MPs Not Twigging "On A Different Planet"

Orwellian UK BANNED Press TV: British campaigners have warned that public trust in politicians has reached a “crisis point,” as a new poll shows just one in four Britons trusts their MPs to represent them in the parliament.

The campaign group 38 Degrees made the warning on Monday after a YouGov poll showed only 24 percent of Britons trusted their MPs.
The group said that a separate survey found that 86 percent of MPs believed they were trusted by their voters.
David Babbs, the executive director of 38 Degrees said the two polls, commissioned by the campaign group, show that British politicians were on a “different planet.”
“These figures are proof that the public’s trust in politicians has reached crisis point. MPs don’t just speak a different language – they’re on a different planet to the rest of us,” said Babbs.

The polls come a day ahead of a vote in the House of Commons on a bill that would allow voters to recall their parliamentarians if they are jailed for 12 months or if an MP committee rules that they have been engaged in “serious wrongdoing.”
“This vote will be the acid test of whether MPs trust their constituents - or whether they want to keep real power locked within Westminster,” said Babbs.
According to British media, there remain concerns among MPs that the bill would make it too easy for a parliamentarian to be removed from its seat, while critics say criteria for a recall are too narrow and would only give voters limited right to force by-elections.
