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

29 have been accused of spouse abuse

7 have been arrested for fraud

19 have been accused of writing bad cheques

117 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

4 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 organization is this?

It's the 635 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

I'm betting that Ted Kennedy alone doesn't have a much better record...not to mention the rest of Congress. :lol: :roll:

I've seen email chains floating around with the same exact numbers for our side of the pond. Either the math is a coincidence, or....seems it's a chain hoax. Doesn't mean that we still don't have a bunch of crooks in office, though!
