Here's a very handy website for finding out about our MPs actually do, and for keeping tabs on them: TheyWorkForYou.com

It provides citizens with a range of information on their politicians, such as:

* Who their local MP is
* What MPs said in Parliament
* Summaries of how MPs have voted
* Text of debates in Parliament
* Video of MPs talking in debates
* Written questions MPs have submitted to government departments, and the answers they’ve got back
* Email alerts whenever an MP speaks, or a topic is mentioned in Parliament
* Comments and annotations from our users on what has been said

You can find out what your politicians have actually done. For example, here's some of what they have to say about Roger Gale:
