As a non-brit, one of the most hilarious - or sad - thing is how easy British political elites can get away with breaching rules.

In France, there is now an independent agency, the authority for ethics and transparency (HATPV) in charge of ensuring politicians respect ethics rules. And if they breach rules, they can face very heavy fines and even jail.

HATPV isn't joking. They have prosecuted dozens of french politicians.

In Britain, you have a bunch of toothless watchdogs that say "The honorable gentleman did not act honorably"

Acoba is JOKE. Their enforcement mechanism is a strongly worded letter 🤦 🤦 🤦

Seriously guys, this is just embarrassing.
