aaid Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Here ya go Section 16 of the Code says MPs "shall never undertake any action which would cause significant damage to the reputation and integrity of the House of Commons as a whole, or of its Members generally". Any MP who breaches the code and is suspended by the Commons for 10 sitting days then faces a by-election if 10 per cent of their constituents sign a recall petition I think he will get away with it because Nicola isnt a member of the house of commons... its only the 1st minister of Scotland who was libeled...not a precious MP..... Apparently the Recall act, although passed in the last parliament, isn't in force yet so he can't be recalled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Paisley Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Have to laugh at Wee Willie Winkie (Rennie) for bleating about Carmichael being given a second chance? He would be leading the charge calling for resignations etc if the boot was firmly on the foot and it was a Nationalist that came away with this sort of stuff. Quite simply, he and the other Lib Dem nonentities in Holyrood are terrified of the backlash next May. More interested in saving their own skins. Carmichael should be getting his collar felt for this. He should be expelled from the Commons and his party and a by-election forced. The SNP must not let this rest and keep the pressure on for a full enquiry by the Ethics Commission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomtscotland Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Lallands Peat Worrier reckons that someone could lay an election petition at Court of Session. The basis being that his lying was an "illegal practice" that could void his election. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually hesitated in case Clyde got hurt and I like Clyde but I hoped no one would would be as insensitive to bring it up. So between fingering and insensitivity I'm setting Flora on you!

Alibi Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I agree he should get a second chance. Resigning as an MP and standing for re-election is his "second chance"... He cannot continue as an MP. He is like a plane with it engines on fire - could limp on for a bit but as an MP he is crippled and will crash and burn. He must realise that himself.

exile Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 R4 did a short piece on this. finally BBC waking up to the fact it's not just about the leak but the lie/cover-up. Malcolm Bruce in full 'SNP bad' whataboutery. And claiming Scotland is a bruised divided nation and can't afford to lose an alternative voice like the LibDems. Presumably for the good of democracy, AC should stay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffer Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) I only heard the start of it but it sounded like Malcolm Bruce was about to go fully postal. There was a raging SNPBAAAAD forming on his lips. Apparently he also said that every single MP in parliament is a liar too. That'll endear him to his party colleagues.

Stapes Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Until the last year I hadn't realised how bitter Malcolm Bruce was, and just how far his visceral hatred of the SNP extends. A really horrible little man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilser Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Bruce seems to be judging all MPs by the standards set by Lib Dem MPs: Chris Huhne - lied about driving his car when he was caught speeding. Jailed David Laws - lied about his domestic arrangements, to his significant financial advantage. Had to resign. Nick Clegg and tuition fees - although I suppose that that's more of a broken promise than a lie, so by these standards he's a beacon of integrity.

A really horrible little man. Up until last year or so I just took the Libs as nice-ish but useless and harmless (Wee Wullie springs to mind). Now you see them for the twisted conniving bastirds they always were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
