Was It Worth It? Humans of the House
-
- Ciência política
We’ve come to the final chapter of an MP’s civic journey. What is it like to leave office? Whether they resigned, decided not to run again, or lost an election, former MPs tell us their stories of leaving parliament. Just like any ending, it brings lots of mixed emotions.
After hearing all the ups and downs of their lives as MPs, one question remains: was it worth it?
