WOTC - Choose your MP

I asked this question in the Wisdom of the Crowd:
Which is most important when you choose your MP?

Here are the responses: (76 Votes)
51 % - A non PAP candidate, to effect change.
36 % - The personal quality and background of the candidate.
8 % - The platform of the party.
4 % - The party that fields the candidate.
1 % - A PAP candidate to ensure continuity.
