How long will Hilary Armstrong last as a backbench MP?

VFTN only asks this question because when he lived and worked in the North-East the Durham North-West MP was notable for rarely having anything must to say about life in her own constituency and the issues affecting the people who voted for her. It will be interesting to see whether she does throw herself into the role of constituency MP or finds herself another role to keep busy.

Update: Paul Linford is less sceptical than me and believes she will stay one for one more parliament.
