Did I hear right????
On the Radio 4 news programme at around 6pm last night.....
The Labour MP for Stroud said...
He estimates that 20% of MPs are actually dishonest...
Laurie Mayer didn't pick up that.... that's around 130 MPs who are, by one of their own number, classed as dishonest!!
Where do we go from here?

At this rate I may be persuaded to vote liberal at least some of their MP’s appear to have a modicum of moral fibre.
'Cash for questions' raised about 300 quid per question. Hardly on the current scale where Labour are embezzling 10's of thousands of pounds per year with their fraud. AND.... the cash for questions was not paid for by the taxpayer !!!!!!Comment

Your assertion that Labour are all bad and the Tories can do no wrong has worn so thin I can see right through it.
I'm neither a Labour sympathiser nor a Tory basher, they’re all pigs with their noses in one trough or another.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

One party promised to be 'whiter than white', and that was not the Tories. Those that make such promises and the proceed to blatantly break them deserve more criticism because they are low-life hypocrites. The Tories never made such promises or I would have held them to it as well.Comment

There's a peado near us that butt-fcked some schoolies then killed and buried them. BUT he had never said he wouldn't do it so I reckon the plod should let him off

Their noses (all Parties) are in the public purse trough right up to their shoulders, in a few exceptional cases up to their ankles.
Don't forget with the exception of the Sein Fein MP's who refuse to take their seats all MP's have access to the same ludicrous allowances and with notably few exceptions they all exploit them to the full.Comment
