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

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

And the base of your argument is whatabouttery.

On the one hand I'd instantly vote for any party that nukes IR35 and IHT.

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.

[WTFH]

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

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.

misrepresent themselves on their CV

to someone who commited acts of sexual abuse.

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.

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

[WTFH]

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?

Could be one of many, but it's easy to forget (or to rely on wikipedia).
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

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.

Like MPs who were found guilty of kicking seven bells out of the girlfriends?

Surely the level of intelligence and civility in the UK has not dropped so much that people can no longer see through the thin veneer.

Don't be too sure: the Orange Moron reelection proves how dumb people are.

[Andy2022]

Yes we would much rather vote for convicted fraudsters and those that misrepresent themselves on their CV. Oh Well..

Trump is now back in charge, so there is some hope of world peace again like there was between 2017 and 2021. It wasn't luck that were no wars during his first term.

The warmongering neocons like Biden, Harris and Liz Cheney, Boris, Rishi, Starmer, Macron.. (the list is endless) have been defeated for now...

<WTFH>You right wing fool!! Trump is the spawn of the devil Nigel Farage molests sexy Gnomes! Only lefties could have the brains to lead us to Utopia.</WTFH>

[Fraidycat]

The Doomsday Clock may have reached midnight before then.

Certainly a WW must be in the offing at some point. Unless this time (in human history) is different.
