According to the Times, four Labour peers have been caught in an undercover operation offering to amend legislation in return for cash. This is of course highly disturbing and if these allegations are true I hope all four of them are expelled from the House at the very least. I'm not sure under what heading they might be guilty of a criminal offence; nobody was convicted the last time this happened, though both MPs involved retired in disgrace. I hope there's something, because I don't see what else you can do to a Lord other than kick him out. You can't even confiscate his pay, because he doesn't get any.
Also, one has to wonder about the names of those involved. The mental health of a Defence procurement minister called Moonie must be in question ('a dangerous and secretive cult', equally applicable to the Unification Church or the defence lobbyists' association). On the other hand, how can one not feel sorry for a Whip named Snape? His children must give him a terribly hard time.
