        @PerfumeLodge @BBCBreaking It's the same with child molesters, they get the small fry and cover up the big offenders. Big cover up going on.

        @PerfumeLodge @BBCBreaking The law is always on the side of people with money, unfortunately. System is flawed.

        @Pwookey @BBCBreaking I agree the law is flawed but its not just those with money who benefit. Legal Aid saw lots of awful deeds excused 2.

        @Pwookey @BBCBreaking There needs to be a system that treats everybody #equally & that having more money doesn't make anyone above the law.

        @PerfumeLodge @BBCBreaking And Defence Lawyers should stop trying to get guilty people off and launching appeals just for the money.

        Suggests @danielbyles's #LordsReform might apply to the Commons too @BBCBreaking @theJeremyVine?

        @BenThomWood most of what I'm doing will actually bring Lords into line with Commons. If an MP is sentenced to 12 months+ they're thrown out

        @BBCBreaking Interesting no mention of his party, nor on Radio 1 news. Sure this would've been mentioned if he was a Tory. @HughesCFC
