 It is quite remarkable how we have witnessed numerous Conservative MP’s involved in corruption and fleecing us the tax payer to line their own pockets. To the best of my knowledge not one of them has yet been prosecuted let alone sent to jail for these criminal acts? If it was an “ordinary” member of the public we’d have been banged up without hesitation. You can commit fraud and theft with impunity if you are an MP, no matter how often the facts are broadcast nothing happens! I would name all the culprits but it would be boring and the list is too long. It is beyond my understanding and yet in no way are any of us surprised! It is not exclusively limited to Tory politicians and I am not ignoring that others are guilty of misdemeanours, the temptation to dip into the filthy pool of greed is to great for many at their level to ignore. The proportion of millionaires in Parliament is way above the level in the rest of society. These wealthy men and women blame all the ills of the country on those who have much less and are just trying to live their lives the best they can. how dare they strike or ask for better conditions and pay? They are holding the country to ransom? It is easy to condemn when you have plenty and are getting a pay rise or an uplift in expenses every year! Yet there is a proportion of our electorate who vote Tory no matter what, I expect it from those who are protecting there own status but I fail to understand why ordinary working people do. I know the reasons are not always about standard of living and can range from tough on crime to keeping immigrants out and other reasons. It is baffling! Well there you are  a conundrum wrapped in a mystery clothed in an enigma! My mind is discombobulated by the whole messy nonsense! We seem incapable, unwilling or just plain apathetic to do anything about it?

Stay well
