Lobbying for Cash
Soon, someone will say 'they still don't get it'. After all the raging anger at MPs' expenses and their other spanish practices, it should amaze everyone that 'cash for influence' is continuing as strongly as ever. As far as I'm concerned, and I bet the same goes for millions of other Britons, this is corruption pure and simple. The lobbyists and MPs concerned should be prosecuted and thrown into jail. MPs are already paid by us to represent voters' interests. MPs should never take additional payments to do that job and neither should they even consider taking money to represent any other interest. At least people are beginning to talk publicly about turning the pyramid of power over so that real people are 'in power' and MPs are their servants, rather than the Alice in Wonderland system we have now where some of the worst, most incompetent and corrupt people in the land try to tell us what's good for us and how we should behave.
