If there was porn on his Commons-supplied computer, that would be a sackable offence at any other employer, regardless of the fact that it was apparently legal. If it was downloaded by somebody else, it is still a serious disciplinary matter as it would mean he would have allowed that other person to access his PC which would have been likely to contain sensitive information. The fact that his supporters are concentrating on the type of porn allegedly involved is just an attempt to deflect attention from the real issue

 

He could be sacked from a gov't post, but not from parliament.

That depends. If he is found guilty of misconduct by the Commons, he can be the first MP to be the subject of a recall vote. Of course, if he had any sense of dignity, he would resign before that happened.

Indeed. This kind of thing is old hat to people in Bournemouth. Our Council ex-leader lost his job (and resigned as a Councillor shortly after) for exactly the same thing. Had I (heaven forbid) used my work laptop to download porn I would have lost my job instantly, but politicians seem to be such special people - able to make the rules for the plebs, but free to flaunt them themselves by virtue of their moral superiority and huge brains. Some of them have brains so big they can barely walk through a doorway without having to stoop low.

 

So never say politicians stoop low at the drop of a hat. They can't avoid the dropping the hat off their massive heads....

 

There are also whispers that the porn (allegedly) isn't the real issue. Davy Davy has hinted he might resign if his bestie doesn't get party support. At long last, the excuse he's been looking for to dump Brexit negotiations (failed so far) from his huge workload....

You really couldn't make it up, could you? "If you sack my fwiend for bweaking the wules, I'll scweam and scweam and scweam and then I'll quit."

I suspect that is an unlikely scenario, on a 'let he who is without sin cast the first stone' basis...

 

Besides, I thought they needed a certain level of approval by the voters in his constituency?

In order for a recall vote to be triggered, an MP first has to be found guilty of misconduct by the Commons. I think there is then a minimum number of signatures to be collected before such a vote actually happens.

So Jacob Rees-Mugg has met with Steve Bannon.

 

Think about that. The man who wants to destroy the US political system and make America whiter. The man who spreads lies and propaganda in a joint attack on democracy with Donald Trump and helped make him President, meeting with a rich posh man who has ambitions to be Prime Minister.

 

The next Trump, one might presume, only not as dumb, not quite as rich, and sneaky enough to try and hide his real agenda. Bit like Farage meeting Assange.

 

"Coming soon, When Jakie Met Stevie, a movie of two lifelong friends who f***ed other people but not each other. "I'll have what he's having" said one restaurant customer, after Stevie showed how he faked orgasms during a meal. It can only end one way: the start of lifelong relationship?" Written by former Hollywood scriptwriter (failed) S. Bannon B.R.Eitbart (Hons)

Was he a Hollywood scriptwriter?!

 

This is appalling.

 

It's as bad as when he went for a luncheon with an EXTREMELY racist group that wants to 'repatriate' ANY and ALL non-white people even AFTER!!! the Human Rights Campaign contacted him to let him to know about their views.

 

He is vile. The worst Landed Gentry Tory I have ever come across.

That sounds like a bit of exaggeration to me.

I would hope that such a vote would need cross-party support, otherwise it could be abused for party political purposes.

His own words. Try googling. So naive......

 

I tried googling so naive, but it just came up with a Kooks song. :P

Or, indeed, make it very difficult for a government MP to be dumped. The intention was to avoid frivolous attempts by voters (particularly in seats where the winner got around 1/3rd of the vote). However, the resultant system is still deeply flawed.

Anyone remember Davy Davy saying he would resign if Green was forced to quit? I can only assume he is waiting for someone to help him write his resignation letter.

I guess he's hoping that no-one has that in writing. ;)

I should imagine there's several million volunteers lining up. I can help, if need be:

 

Dear Tez,

I said I wud go if Dames went, so fraid I must also go and do the decent thing
