Pierre, human psychology defeats the ideals that you have put forward.

Those who want to be MPs, whether Labour or Conservative or any other party for that matter, are interested in their slice of power and their effect on society and the country. But many are also highly qualified and naturally want to tap in to their non-political skills.

If there are to be rules, then, I suggest, they can only be tied to their parliamentary performance. For example, if an MP is not present in the chamber on 3 sitting days per week (unless absent on parliamentary business) then their constituency will have the opportunity for a recall petition each anniversary of election. Something like that.
