Should there be term limits set for members of Parliament?
A term limit is a law that limits the amount of time a political representative may hold an elected office. In the U.S. the office of the President is restricted to two four year terms. There are currently no term limits for Congressional terms but various states and cities have enacted term limits for their elected officials at the local level.

Yes, they should only be allowed to stand in 2 consecutive elections before having to stand down allowing for fresh ideas and moving with the times
@9DVGLL3 1yr1Y
No, but there should be age restrictions with retirement benefits for fairer representation of young people
@9DQXFPV1yr1Y
No but maybe only for prime ministers (two terms). Also increase the terms to four years. Three years is too short to get anything done.
@9DQCX3D1yr1Y
Yes and no retirement payouts. There should be less Mp's to!
@9DPH5P61yr1Y
Not necessarily, a good member of parliament/prime minister might be the best choice for the country, however the individuals most likely to do everything they can to remain in power probably aren't going to be making the best choices for the country but more what is best for them personally.
@9CQ7XR51yr1Y
Yes, but they should be longer terms
@9FFVJS41yr1Y
Yes, unless there is no opposition running.
