The only justification for not doing this is protectionism. Starmer is placing party above country. We can see how damaging the Tories are. I do not want to see their likes again.

The current system, which has local representation has not prevented SE centric policy, so why do you believe that maintaining that element needs to remain? Local MP’s given the illusion of local support, but why should that be a function of central government? HS2 is adding example of why local MP’s don’t work IMO. A significant part of why it’s over budget is wealthy NIMBYS and their pet MP. Local issues are just bargaining chips in Westminster.
I’d argue the role played by local MP’S would be better served by the local authority.
