Pretending that it's a woke plot by remoaners is not going to cut the ice. And pretending that because there was no enquiry over a former PM's lies to Parliament should mean that all future Prime Ministers can lie without consequence defies logic.

I'd just like to see Tory MP's being asked to follow the same rules we do. I wonder what will happen to my own local MP, who is currently awaiting a trial because he told a protester they should go back to Bahrain. Likely nothing, even if he is convicted. The sad thing is, I live in an area that is so deeply Tory, he would probably still win any election in the area, even if he is convicted.
