Regulatory body for MPs
I would like MPs to be regulated by an independent regulatory authority, in the same way that doctors, teachers and nurses are regulated. Politicians are increasingly professional careerists, so should be regulated accordingly and be held accountable for lying and misrepresentation. I do not accept that self-regulation is working.
Why is this important?
I believe that the country is sick and tired of MPs lying and misrepresenting their way into power. MPs can get away with lies (as evidenced by the recent collapse of the Johnson case) with no rebuke. It is time for a General Politicians Council to be founded.
