They're being let off because they were not disqualified from being elected! Letting politicians off the hook with a terrible track record in human rights weakens democracy.
But if we adopt such a laissez-faire attitude to good governance, then it's natural to look the other way at the dark money and troll farms that contributed - in what way we don't know - to the Brexit outcome.
