Collective positioning like this are one reason people in the States get upset at politicians. You voted with the people who voted for you and you voted your conscience. I see nothing wrong in your posiition.

We have a similar situation in our district where an anti-war military veteran ran against a popular Republican with moral's baggage. The anti-war guy won but submitted to Nancy Pelosi's vision of whining and finger-pointing about the war while doing exactly nothing to end it. It may be part of parlimentary democracy that it seems more acceptable in GB.
