I'm sure if it was a civil servant doing this, they would be. Unfortunately, MPs cannot be sacked.

I'm not surprised, I think bio-metrics is going to have to start coming in quicker as people are too lazy to remember a decent password. And not to share it.

Twitter has had a field day with this. She's essentially given her PC password to interns in her office, opening up her computer to all sorts of viruses, malware, etc, let alone any secure information accessible over her network.

May as well just have a big sign on her door advising that she's open for free for Russian and Chinese hackers.
