On repeated occasions, our Prime Minister appears to have shown evidence that there is one rule for the many, and one rule for others. Today was an example where he showed that he likes to ignore and then bend the rules.
I disagree with the stance that Labour has on second jobs. My view is that I have no issues with MP's having a second job. I just do not want them to be involved in corrupt behaviour, this including lobbying for a business that an MP works for as part of their second job, or contracts being awarded to friends, or being part of a task force on COVID prevention and pushing through a measure that will not protect people.
There is no doubt that this government have come across as corrupt and have lost the moral standpoint to question other nations about this. I understand the reluctance of the Prime Minister to avoid this, but to repeatedly break the rules of Parliament in PMQ's is even less acceptable than his usual refusal to answer difficult questions posed to him.
