Surely if there is any suggestion of an MP not co-operating fully with the independent audit of their expenses then they should be sacked immediately.
They must have a contract of employment and this must constitute gross misconduct.
Notwithstanding the terrible damage to our faith in democracy, have these politicians no sense of shame.
Commons speaker John Bercow has urged co-operation but shouldn't he be doing more?
I'm beginning to feel like the MPs are hoping we'll all forget about this. Well we won't.

Dead right. These people are public servants representing the electorate for god's sake! Democracy is a lovely word but sadly we haven't been living in one for a long time now. What we really need is another box at the bottom of our ballot papers that says "None of the above but I still believe in democracy and I want a better system than this."
