So Says I

Scott Yorke, over at Imperator Fish, is always worth reading and usually amusing.

An unusually serious post this evening (go and read it), with a brilliant finish:

From a political perspective it doesn't matter any more whether John Banks faces criminal charges. The damage to his career is terminal, and his credibility is ruined. He has behaved shamefully, and the arguments made on his behalf that what he has done is okay so long as it's not actually illegal are frankly disgraceful. The expectations we hold of our MPs go beyond not breaking the law.

That's it, exactly.
