MPs should take a reality check

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

The revelations that we have recently seen in the news about  MPs’  behaviour has shocked us to the core, as they ‘played the system’ to gain extra personal benefits.  

There is no doubt that if we hardworking business people tried to gain money to which we were not entitled by, for instance, doubling-up on benefits, we would firstly be unlikely to get them authorised, and secondly would probably be fired from our jobs,  or prosecuted.

Their job is to serve the people, openly,  not to secretly line their nests at our expense. 

Ministers are stepping down.  But will justice have been seen to be done if they only get a ’slapped wrist’? 

What will cause the Government take action that satisfies the electorate?

How will the public voice be heard?

The local elections tomorrow give an ideal opportunity to voice your view.

Will you be one of the people who turn out massively to do just that?
