More revelations from the press about how MP's allow themselves to be put in a position where they could be influenced by lobbyists for money. There is nothing wrong, of course, with interest and pressure groups lobbying a politician but it is absolutely wrong for an elected representative to solicit (allegedly) money for asking a question that could help some company. Things are definitely getting world in the world of politics and the politicians in question are not doing much to help remove that suspicion. There needs to be a radical re think of how the current system works. Perhaps its time to get thinking of creative ways of changing things? I am sure there are many consultants around who wouldn't mind recommending some alternatives. Colonel Qaddafi? (joking of course..)
