All for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind.

Well done
Not surprisingly, I'll join the chorus offering kudos to the members of all three opposition parties for acting on the Cons' blatant violations of Parliamentary privilege. It's worth keeping in mind that the contempt motions are just the start of the process, and indeed the more important question is the willingness of the entire House of Commons to back up the motions presented today - but this morning's events made for a necessary step in actually preserving some semblance of Parliamentary supremacy.
