We are told that Respect MP George Galloway is facing suspension from the House of Commons for 18 days, following an investigation by Parliament's standards committee.
The MPs say he "damaged the reputation of the House" in his comments about the inquiry into his Mariam Appeal charity. Apparently he should have looked a little closer at the money he received (all of which was used for the charity) before allowing the funds into the charity. Worse still, he actually had the cheek to enter a debate in an institution that is a debating chamber!
What an absolute joke!
Parliament - full of parties who have nominated peers who have (by sheer coincidence) provided them with a nice little wedge, and who have received donations from rapists and other dodgy characters - now feel that George Galloway’s conduct has damaged the reputation of that place.
I’m sure that the rapists, donors and lobbyists who have provided “support” to all the major parties must be laughing their socks off.
Catch a grip – parliament has the reputation it deserves and it’s not down to the alleged actions/omissions of one MP alone. The reality is that they simply can’t handle anyone who doesn’t fall over when they demand it.
