However, it will be a miracle if there are not some highly dubious purchases and practices somewhere in the mountain of 700,000 receipts, on that CD bought by a national newspaper.
If serious wrongdoing is revealed by any of our local MPs, then they should pay the price of losing the honour – if it is still an honour – of sitting in Parliament.

This well-deserved revulsion should not fell innocent MPs – just the guilty ones.
