The real scandal is not that some MPs break technical rules, it’s that they are all given large amounts of money to put out propaganda promoting themselves in their constituencies.
There is a lot of “incumbent corruption” in British politics nowadays and it is still growing, but tha ctivities of MPs of all parties is the worst incidence of it.
