  I think that expecting honesty from any politician is ideology gone mad, Marek. They believe that the people who voted them are incapable of being told the truth; far from being the end of the reforms required, I believe that the expenses scandal has unearthed a requirement for a Parliamentary Ombudsman to monitor what is said in Parliament, including what is said under Parliamentary privilege.
  
  Lying to Parliament, and its lesser cousin, being economical with the truth, is an affront to the nation as a whole and should be against the law.
  
  That issue aside, I think your first paragraph in the last post conveniently overlooks the fact that providing opposition to the current Government's attempt to stem the tide of economic crises is barely credible when one considers that Her Majesty's Opposition are the very people whose economic policies caused the bloody problems in the first place.
