The Archbishop -defending priviledge against principles

rather than being outraged at the thought that MPS have been stealing off the taxpayers for the past 20 years or so , the archbishop of canterbury Rowan Williams said The continuing systematic humiliation of politicians itself threatens to carry a heavy price in terms of our ability to salvage some confidence in our democracy." - is the man for real the MPS deserve to be humiliated and the people have the right to know - many MPS should count themselves lucky that they haven't been arrested. A message to the archbishop , it's not the people who are undermining democracy rather the MPS themselves are.


John mann a labour MP proving that there are still some honourable mps in response to the Archbishop's comments said John Mann told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that the public had "a right to know" about MPs' expenses and that, ultimately, British politics could be strengthened by the affair.

He said: "Clearly there's major embarrassment, there will be casualties, we don't know politically who the casualties will end up being, and so it's major trauma for the political system and for politicians.

"But if we handle it well from now on, we'll recover confidence and we could have a far better political system even within a matter of months."

FINALLY!

The person who has been impersonating a speaker for the last 9 years that being Gorbals/gormless Mick aka Michael Martin is to resign this afternoon. Unfortunately this is about 9 years late- he shouldn't have been Speaker in the first place, but hey ho at least he's done something decent in his life and is going to resign, i hope not to late to salvage some of the House of Commons integrity.

Sack The Speaker

If in any other job you'd shown first breatHaking bias to your own side in the case of Michael Martin to the labour party, tried to destroy the freedom of information act, backed parliamentarians who sickeningly wanted to carry on the gravy train which is mps expenses through blocking publications, claimed a ridiculous amount for himself and his wife on expenses,allowed Damien Green an mp for the conservatives to be arrested by the police on commons property, told off david cameron for answering a perfectly fair question to one of the worst prime ministers the country has had in Gordon Brown, and then breatakingly when the telegraph reveals the gravy train which is MP's expenses he has a go not at the MPS who have stolen off the taxpayer, but has a go at the person who has leaked the information to the telegraph,and then disgustingly attacked Kate Hoey an MP for the Labour Party, for saying she should be concentrating on reforming the expenses system, and then having a go at Norman Baker and David Winnick for defending Kate Hoey.

Today saw another lamentable perfomance from the speaker who should now have a new nickname not as Gorbals Mick but as Gormless mick. Today he attacked douglas carswell a conservative MP for having the temerity to bring about a motion with signatures from MPS from across the party political spectrum asking him to go.

If he didn't hold such an important position , this would be a joke, he needs to go now , before he destroys the reputation of the House Of Commons even further than it already has been.

in any other job if you had lied to the taxpayer, shown bias to your own side, blocked innovative ideas, and tacitly supported criminal acts by supporting the MP expenses gravy train, you would be sacked, and investigated by the serious fraud office. Unfortunately I have a horrifying feeling Michael Martin will continue as speaker ,fluffing his lines, defending the criminals against the innocent.
