Making sure that your MP does his or her job in your interests is tough to do, when you seldom have a chance to see or hear the MP in action. In the UK, a private charity has helped bridge the gap between voter and MP by setting up a website called TheyWorkForYou.

Here is an example of a post on that site, showing extracts from a debate.

As the site says:
For all its faults and foibles, our democracy is a profound gift from previous generations. Yet most people don't know the name of their MP, nor their constituency, let alone what their MP does or says in their name. We aim to help bridge this growing democratic disconnect, in the belief that there is little wrong with Parliament that a healthy mixture of transparency and public engagement won't fix. Hence this website.
