Pardon me, my head just exploded.

Sir George Young, Conservative chairman of the Standards and Privileges Committee, tabled an amendment to the Bill removing the clause on the code of conduct.
From The Evening Standard.
Sir George Young, Conservative chairman of the Standards and Privileges Committee, tabled an amendment to the Bill removing the clause on the code of conduct.
He believes that giving legal force to the code of conduct could "fetter MPs' discretion" in dealing with their constituents' concerns. He added: "I want to be held accountable to the ballot-box, not to the courts, for what I do as an MP."
What an utter cunt, people have been screaming that it's one law for MP's another for the common man and you've just proved them right.
You ginomous cock end. Everyone should be accountable to the courts and the law of the land, even the Queen can be made to answer to the law.
But no , not you because some how you're better than us, because a few thousand people voted that you were the least worst candidate of the lot ( only because 'none of the above' wasn't an option )
I have to stop now as I think I'm having an aneurysm , I hope some more widely read blogs pick up on this.
All I can say is, thank fuck he wasn't elected Speaker

Indeed.
I hope that wasn't the point he was making. I think he was saying that the way to judge whether an individual MP has claimed more than is fair is not through some horrifically complex set of rules but by publishing everything and letting the voters decide.
