This minority government will have paired Fiona Onasanya throughout her month in prison.
Even Her Majesty's Government, and even the party from which Onasanya took her seat by a mere 607 votes, hold her conviction in that level of contempt.
Notice that no attempt has been made, by anyone at all, to invoke the power of the House of Commons to expel a Member.
There has been no such attempt, by anyone, even though Stewart Jackson, whom she so narrowly defeated, would have been a stalwart of the European Research Group if he had still been in the House.
Jackson appears to have been out of work since David Davis, to whom he was Chief of Staff and Special Adviser, resigned from the Cabinet as long ago as last July.
But has his convicted and imprisoned successor at Peterborough been expelled in order to get him back into Parliament? There has been no such attempt. By anyone.
Believing in the guilt of Fiona Onasanya is clearly a mark of being below the salt. Tell me about it.
