Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than
600 employees and has the following employee statistics.

29 have been accused of spouse abuse

7 have been arrested for fraud

9 have been accused of writing bad cheques

17 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses

3 have done time for assault

71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit

14 have been arrested on drug-related charges

8 have been arrested for shoplifting

21 are currently defendants in lawsuits

84 have been arrested for drink driving in the last year


Which organisation is this?

It's the 649 members of the House of Commons, the same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.
