London City Council wants to hire integrity commissioner

[puckstopshere]

Wouldn't it be cheaper to get a mayor and councillors with integrity?

You're a funny guy Puck.

Other municipalities have done the same. Sad statement about politicians. Soon we will need  a government, to keep an eye on the government.

Politician and Integrity in the same sentence ? Isn't that called an oxymoron ?

[rafael.xavier]

who will keep the eye on integrity of integrity commissioner, "integrity commissioner's" integrity commissioner ?

automatic 10yrs plus in maximum security labour camp for any political abuse would make most of them honest without fancy commissions 🙂

Intergrity is a very fine line!  Some will agree some won't!

Councilor hires prior to do a job for him (whatever it is prior does). Prior offers him 10% discount. (offers it to all his close friends and relatives--OK stop laughing) Is councilor allowed to accept the discount or will it be against the rules?

You go to a wedding and are walking to the bar and get there the same time as the mayor. Both order a drink at the same time--you offer to pay ! against the rules or not ?

IF you have had any dealing with council or plan on having any it is against the rules as the Mayor has not "profited' from your act of kindness.

But how far do you want to take it???

I am not sure about the oxy part, but I am sure there are a few morons in there somewhere.
