The silent defence and development frontbench.
Corbyn has named his full frontbench team a while back--not so bad.
Up to now, none of them (Defence--Eagle, Jones, Perkins and Maskell) and (International Development--Abott and Kane) have asked a SINGLE question in written questions. The proof is on Hansard http://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/written-questions-answers-statements/written-questions-answers/?page=1&max=20&questiontype=AllQuestions&house=commons%2clords
That's so wondeful is it? Be on the front bench and not ask written questions. Let the SNP frontbenchers and Labour back benchers ask away.
Yay!
