Maybe the next PM will listen less to big brother and follow the laws better. 

Not likely.

So in the land of plenty you would choose an old hag?

If that's what an old hag looks like, I'm going to join the local Bridge Club and try to get out more; you can't beat a bit of experience!

If politicians around the world were jailed for negligence they would need to build special jails for ex-politicians due to the large number of guilty.

Incompetence and crap ideas is not the same as willful negligence.

in the UK there is an opposition

media and the streets

were they shit at their jobs as well?

 

At the moment - yes, pretty well so!

 

Labor were all over the place although Corbyn did better than most expected. Promising young people  to do away with tuition fees was a master stroke. And to be fair, he was helped by the most useless numpty the Tories ever put up in May. But, Labor under his leadership, only made a token effort to support remaining in the EU.

 

The press - well there's the Mail, Guardian, Sun, Mirror - spoiled for choice then! Or good old Auntie beeb, ITN, and Sky.

Fine, prosecute her under the laws which existed at the time and give her a fair and transparent trial. I would have no problem with that whatsoever. 

 

Agree with that.

Rule of Law would require a Court order for such decision. But this government doesn't care about the Rule of Law.

 

Not always the case. Some tax authorities can dip into their nationals bank accounts without a specific court order. There are safeguards but the UK tax authorities can dip into someone's accounts without a court order if they have to to recover a tax debt.

The initial idea was watered down after MP's and tax accountant's kicked up. But, if they've met with someone and that person simply doesn't pay they can do it.

I think quite a few EU countries now also have legislation that allows governments to dip into saver's accounts to bail out a failing bank, albeit with rules about amounts etc, but without having to get specific individual court orders.

Hard to prove if negligence is wilful.
