Subject: RE: BS: Bring back Democracy to the UK
Maybe the expenses are capped at £24K but the fiddling, using to advantage some may call it, goes far in excess of the morality set for ordinary people. The criticism of the banking system and the "fat cat" system is that directors etc pay themselves huge amounts of other peoples money (Shareholder profits) make a mess or a success and then eventually walk away with a big wad. Exactly what some MP's have been doing. Thousands of pounds from profitable house selling and renting. Oh, of course nothing "illegal", especially when they set their own rules.

Suppose I decide to live by my own rules and ignore the rules of others what then?

If all that is left to us is to moan about it and then have our pathetic own act of defiance at the ballot box then it shows just how impotent the population have become.

What else can we do?

To whom can we appeal for justice?

Every one of them who has shown the slightest bending of the law should be prosecuted to the fullest extent.

This lot in power at the moment are still protecting each others backs. They have only got rid of deadwood so far.

And then as Mr Morality himself, David Cameron, bays for the blood of others it turns out that he made some good money and could have saved us £22,000.00. So little hope there then. Brown on TV this morning was a waste of space, backpeddling.

So what is left to us?

Any reasonable answer accepted.
