i would like a new rule. Whenever an MP gets away with an infringement, we all get to get away with it. An amnesty should be passed for 12 months dated from the day the MP says 'sorry' and that rule doesn't have to be followed by anyone in the nation during that time

Although these facts about historical rhetoric concerning the public purse should be perfectly understood and obvious to many they are swallowed without question very easily-more transparency should be aired of the truth about these matters then more critical responses would be given.
