The Professors passion for "The Science of Deceit" started here...

Employed by the Ministry (in a covert capacity) to help introduce the law ending dishonest politics, you can see his hand all over the posts of past.

Current political circumstances have forced him to reveal himself and as we speak, MPs are signing up to re-introduce The Elected Representatives (Prohibition of Deception) Bill for debate with over 80,000 voters supporting them.

Posts before Jan '08 are purely for the record (with hindsight they make fascinating reading). Posts after May 13th mark the Professor's return.

2nd Reading today !!!

The Elected Representatives (Prohibition of Deception) Bill is scheduled for a second reading today. Sadly there are 31 other Private Members Bills ahead of us so in real terms it's extremely unlikely we'll get any time on the floor of the House.

Downing street E-petition is doing OK but growth rate is definitely slowing - only 70 names added yesterday. Hmmm.

Had some very amusing e-mails forwarded to us - responses from MPs to their constituents over whether they'd support the Bill. We're collating them and will post a top ten shortly. Don't forget to send yours in - you can write directly to your MP asking them to support the Bill here.
