Quote:
At every general election, there is one constituency in the UK where the voters don't get to vote for the main parties.
"A pointless vote."
"Undemocratic."
"A sham."
Those are the views of some of the 80,000-strong electorate in Buckingham, who feel they haven't had a democratic say at a general election since 2005.
That's because Buckingham's MP has been John Bercow, Speaker of the House of Commons for the last 10 years.
A longstanding parliamentary tradition means major parties agree not to stand against the Speaker, who is considered to be politically neutral.
