Democracy.........................MP's spell it HYPOCRISY

by wisty8golf @ 2008-07-04 - 11:16:04

Yesterday the MPs voted to keep their snouts in the trough and do nothing about their fiddling expenses.
What I fail to understand is how MP's are allowed to vote on subjects that are relevant to them and them only.
Wouldn't we all love to be judge and jury (plus prosecution and defense) on items that effect us.
How can this load of sponging fiddlers look each other in the face and in all truth maintain that their recent decisions re their pay and expenses are justified. Are we totally powerless to do anything about it. Please don't tell me that it can be corrected at the ballot box. They are all fiddlers.
There must be a commission set up to review the whole situation and it must be totally devoid of MP's or bigwigs who owe their high positions to Parliament in the first place.
If you see my hand up that is because I volunteer to sit on it.

No matter who you vote for, a politician always seems to win.
