"Time and time again, I see people defending the likes of Johnson when he lies through his teeth by saying "oh they all lie." Well you're in luck. Dawn Butler submtted a petition to stop MPs lying in the House of Commons. So the question is: do you support this? Or would you rather our rulers continue lying without facing any consequences whatsoever? " my reading is lying is already banned ... But it is the PM ATM who decides the consequences ... The motion is for the house to have that say. I'm in favour of that as a principal as the PM is an odd role from a democratic POV. | |||

It's even supposedly a resigning offence. And yet Johnson lies with impinity there, time after time. So it's clear the current "rules" are meaningless. | |||

"But how can you be ‘ the right honourable’ if you tell lies? We have too many politicians, so if we banish or execute those found to be telling porkies, win and win! " I like this idea a lot!! Option two please.. | |||

"If all the current members of Parliament who had lied had to resign from the house of commons the place would be empty " Sounds like you do want them to stop lying. So do I. So, I'd guess, do most people. Yet when Butler tried to push a motion through Parliament to try and hold MPs accountable for lying, only a minority of MPs supported the motion. (Something like 70 out of 650 if I remember rightly.) It's almost as if MPs want to continue lying with impunity. We all deserve better than this from our representatives. | |||

" I think the consequences for politicians caught in the act of disrepute should not only to lose there job in the government but to also be removed from the political forum completely. When caught they go from there post but still remain in there party The basic annual salary of a Member of Parliament (MP) in the House of Commons is £81,932, as of April 2020. In addition, MPs are able to claim allowances to cover the costs of running an office and employing staff, and maintaining a constituency residence or a residence in London. Most if not all pay there friends 50/60k a year to be assistants ect when they are under skilled and non qualified for jobs that don’t actually exist (Matt Hancock as an example) This is money taken from the tax we all pay for our representative to represent us in office | |||
