    Probably not Chris Pincher - it wasn't a girlfriend that he groped.
    Imran Ahmad Khan - no, boys for him.
    Rob Roberts - well, he said he was sorry, so that makes it OK.
    Neil Parish - no that was for beating off, not beating up.
    Mike Hill - could be him
    Andrew Griffiths - wasn't a girlfriend, it was his wife.
    Oh, maybe it was Charlie Elphicke

    The former MP who was suspended from Parliament before trial then expelled, tried & convicted and imprisoned ? Which bit of that do you feel the Conservative party failed in?

    It would have been nice if he hadn't committed any of the offences in the first place but he won a safe Labour seat so the electorate seemed to like him.

      You left out the bit about after he was expelled he was brought back for 7 months, then expelled again once he was charged.

        You have heard of the concept of innocent until proven guilty?

          Most of that $100million will go into Nige The Grifter's back pocket along with a few of his mates.

          No different the top table of the The Third Reich.

          He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

          I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

            So why was he expelled by his party before the trial?
            Oh yes, that was your earlier argument, that he was guilty before trial.
            You are literally using your own argument against yourself.


            And let's not forget that the whole basis of your argument is that you are equating someone who
            misrepresent themselves on their CV
            to someone who commited acts of sexual abuse.

              So would I. Even if they are a bunch of racist muppets who will screw everything else up. Would even welcome Liz Truss back if gets that one job done.

                  its not an either or. Maybe we should treat all convicted offenders as ex MPs?

                    Well he can go for a start. Are there no normal people left who want to be MPs?
