Frank Field MP puts it in perspective ...

From today's Metro:

Labour MP Frank Field questioned whether [Derek Conway's ten-day suspension] was adequate [punishment]. He told MPs: "If this example of what I would see as embezzlement had occurred in the refreshment department on this scale, we would have expected that person to leave the employment of this establishment on that day. I believe we should treat ourselves in a similar manner."

Frank Field, you rock!

I am also awarding Frank Field a belated "rock" for this suggestion for good measure.
