With the news of Andrew Mackay’s resignation and the inevitable “freezing” of his political career, for the time being, there may be some in the House who believe they can breathe a little easier, or sleep a little better tonight.
Such beliefs would not only be foolish. They would be presumptive and out of touch. Mackay should not bear the burden for all those MPs charged with malfeasance.
In the same vein, discontent with the Speaker is understandable and long-standing but the expenses situation should not be the straw that breaks his back. The public would see it, rightly or wrongly, as attempting to pass the buck.
Neither of these men should become a sacrifical lamb.
