Panorama - Can You Forgive Your MP?

Logo for Panorama - Can You Forgive Your MP?

From Hazel Blears to Jacqui Smith many of the most high profile MPs have vowed to fight on. In the Glasgow by election anti-corruption candidates failed dismally. So has the anger turned to apathy? Have voters already forgiven their MPs? Emeka Onono asks Blears and others how they can possibly regain the trust of their voters.
