All of this circus about Brexit and proroguing parliament then not, there is the political oddity that is the City of London corporation whose undue influence I think we should exit from as suggested by the Green Party MP Caroline Lucas (see the wikipedia link).
This page tells us that it has never been under the authority of parliament at Westminster these past 740 years, which strikes me as odd.
As does the fact that since 1571 it has imposed a lobbyist on parliament that every speaker has been allowing onto the floor of the House of Commons.
As does the fact that this guy is not elected by the people, which makes me doubt that any Westminster parliament has ever been for the people except by the leave of the City of London corporation.
This lobbyist is the ring master at the circus that is the Westminster parliament . |
