Nigel:

She referred herself to Sir Laurie Magnus, the Prime Minister's independent adviser on ministerial interests, for investigation, and awaited his decision on whether she had broken the ministerial code. When his decision confirmed that she had, she resigned without further delay.

That seems perfectly reasonable, honest, and decent AFAIC. If it seems otherwise to you, I find that very strange indeed, coming from a supporter of a Party with such an appalling record of dishonesty over its past 14 years in government. ‘One rule for you, a different rule for us’ seems to be one of the strongest principles of the Tories and their supporters.

Indeed we do appear to use different languages, and we seem to have different standards where judgment of parliamentary behaviour is concerned, thank goodness.
