So far yes, she's a keeper. Building up some clout within the system takes time, but she has clearly put herself all-in with this role. It is so good having her as our MP instead of the guy who took for granted that this is a "safe" Tory seat where he need not exert himself to keep it.
Puts me in mind of a BBC production "The Amazing Mrs. Prichard." She was a store clerk who became Prime Minister with the intent of being completely honest and ethical, but is undermined by her aides who aren't. It is altogether too easy to slide down the slippery slope, despite the best intentions. We need to remember the good that outweighs the bad when that happens.
Whenever we're looking for something to watch, I'll have to see if that's still available on BBC iPlayer. It is hard to stay ethical when you've got to joust with too many people who aren't.
Good public servants are rare. I hope she's a keeper!
