I know it’s a cliche, but what were they thinking??
“Tum tim tum, another day working in the public eye as an MP or important parliamentary staff member… Oh what’s this? A man showing me his knob! How nice! Tum ti tum.”
Oh he’s asking me out now! Lovely! Wait, maybe he’s bad. Who knows. Tum ti tum I’ll give him some numbers of my friends before I go off and vote for removing benefits from poor people…"

These people are supposed to be running the country.
No wonder we’ve ended up where we are.

Wasn’t this similar to the reason why the National Teenage Party was created in the 1960s by Screaming Lord Sutch? Teenagers were supposedly too immature to vote, yet John Profumo was mature enough to be an MP.

You didn’t mention that after news broke that Wragg had shared personal information about colleagues with the scammers; the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Jeremy [must type this correctly] Hunt praised him for apologising for his role in the attack and called him ‘courageous’.
That he had put other people potentially in danger seems to have been ignored by the party. Fortunately for their blushes, Wragg has resigned the Conservative whip, although he still sits in the Commons.
