Stop MPS like Hancock

Politics in the UK has for some time been a bizarre, alternate reality. But as we’re now being asked to accept that it’s fine for an MP to work for constituents from a jungle in Australia while chowing down on animal genitalia, something inside me has snapped.

The Ministerial Code looks reasonable enough, but if an MP is found guilty of breaking it sanctions can be swept aside if the PM declares they have confidence in them. We must stop just shaking our heads at this absurdity. Please sign my petition to introduce an independent body to enforce the Ministerial Code – petition.parliament.uk/petitions/627900
