Guardian: Reports that Coalition PM David Cameron and Labour Leader Ed Miliband have called on Eric Illsley to resign his seat in the House of Commons. After the expenses scandal it is in the interest of both major political partiers to finish off those MPs found guilty of fraud and to do it quick, it would be a scandal if Mr Illsley was to get under 12 months in jail and then come out and still be an MP. Thus the House of Commons has to throw one of its own to the wolves and fast, this time the Chamber cant be gracious to a colleague, it has think about the reputation of Parliament, one could ask if Mr Illsley should not lose his pension for his actions in this case.
