That is a well researched list well done.
However, no one on that list has been accused of either punching someone or sexually assaulting someone while in the Commons.
I expect the sleaze, the affairs, the financial irregularities but actually committing offences against the person which includes sexually assaulting a woman while carrying out one’s duties at Westminster, that’s a new one on me.

What a sleaze bag he is. Well if this was America we’d probably elect him president on the basis of that so thank fck for small mercies the UK electorate doesn’t tolerate this behaviour

Former MP reprimanded for ‘brazen’ sexual misconduct
Aaron Bell would have faced a ‘significant’ suspension from Parliament had he still been an MP.

I'd be amazed if that didn't happen, based on the evidence so far.

Margaret Ferrier MP knowingly took a long train journey with Covid, a criminal offence, she lied, yet was convicted. Tried to hold onto her lucrative position.
Fiona Onasanya for caught lying about a motoring offence to pervert the course of justice, jailed. Greedy person fought tooth and nail to hold her lucrative position.
Eric Joyce MP - top expenses claimer, drink driver, headbutted/punched folk in Parliament of his party and others, convicted of assault elsewhere, convicted of having indecent images of very young children on his pc.

I was thinking the same thing. In America we would at least nominate him for president.
I’ll see your Cyril and raise you Paul Clark

Why is there a need for a bar in the commons in the first place?
Hasn't there been a few incidents there in recent times... maybe they should get rid

I'd be amazed if if did happen, unless he’s charged with GBH and/or the judge decides that him being an MP is an aggravating factor that deserves an exemplary sentence.
I was trying to!

Fair enough. It was naive of me to think Cyril Smith was a one-off.I’ll see your Cyril and raise you Paul Clark

This is true.
Robert Venables KC a "well respected" tax barrister has been charged with 2 counts of err "cheating the public revenue" ie tax fraud. One charge covers from 2013 to 2022 and the other from 2018 to 2022.

Why was a current news thread deleted that reported the disgraceful sexual misconduct of a Tory MP while in the House of Commons on a young female member of staff?
Of all the crap threads started on NSC ….
At least amend the title of this thread to reflect that it is not just about Mike Amesbury but also about Aaron Bell .

He wasn’t elected to serve the electorate and living on our taxes.
There is a difference.
If we are going to start saying there’s bad people in all walks of life the list will be endless and you might as well say that MPs don’t need to behave according to a higher standard of conduct than any other tom, Dick and Harry.
Would we be making this much fuss over a physical assault if it was just Gazza the mechanic from the local garage losing his shlt down the local on a Friday night?

Robert Venables is a barrister, a KC, an advocate in court. He helps form tax law by precedent.
He should uphold the highest of standards and ethics, always act lawfully.
On a par with MP's imho. The main difference is that he didn't face a public election.
