Will the last Labour Party politician to be referred to the police please remember to apologise for their party signing the Lisbon Treaty?

Oh dear.

Yet another Labour MP has been referred to the police over their expense claims.

This time, it's former Europe Minister Denis MacShane.

We won't comment on his individual case - read the story on any of the mainstream news sources including the Daily Telegraph and the Evening Standard.

Now, we may be wrong here... but isn't this all following a pattern?

From memory, there was one Conservative peer (Lord Hanningfield) who the police showed an interest in and who is to face court.

Haven't the rest of them all been Labour?

Elliot Morley, David Chaytor, Jim Devine - all Labour, all set to face the courts.

Then came Eric Illsley - Labour.

Yesterday, the Daily Telegraph had a report about former Labour MP Margaret Moran and police interest in her expenses.

Why is it that so many of these MPs where the police are interested enough - and in some cases it's now as far as in the hands of the courts - are all Labour Party MPs..?

Will the Metropolitan Police be accused of being politically biased against Labour?

Only that would be laughable. Especially as we even have Labour peers demanding that the Commons authorities send them to court rather than repaying what was asked of them.

And if not political bias against Labour by the police and the prosecution authorities, then what questions do Labour Party supporters have to ask themselves?

All very well the Labour Party withdrawing the whip once the police become interested. Too late. The association is already there.

Still, it's not just Labour MPs who get arrested. They just seem to be the politicians being arrested over expense claims. MPs from other parties do get arrested for questioning over other matters - though we hasten to add that questions are not an indicator of guilt.

Occasionally - well, under the last, totalitarian Labour Government, anyway - we even saw MPs getting arrested in politically motivated moves which Mugabe would be proud of.

Our bafflement when it comes to Members of Parliament is that nobody has yet been arrested under the Treason Laws or for contravening the written national constitution.

So, may we in the meantime ask any Labour MPs who were in Government and who do not get arrested for their expense claims to apologise for their part in the signing of the Lisbon Treaty which - we assert - was signed in contravention of the Treason Felony Act 1848 and in contravention of the written constitutional document that is the Bill of Rights 1689..?

If the police would like some assistance in who to question for the high crime of treason, may we refer them to the excellent former Special Constable, Albert Burgess?

We remind you again of the text of the Treason Felony Act 1848:

"If any person whatsoever shall, within the United Kingdom or without, compass, imagine, invent, devise, or intend to deprive or depose our Most Gracious Lady the Queen, from the style, honour, or royal name of the imperial crown of the United Kingdom, or of any other of her Majesty’s dominions and countries, or to levy war against her Majesty, within any part of the United Kingdom, in order by force or constraint to compel her to change her measures or counsels, or in order to put any force or constraint upon or in order to intimidate or overawe both Houses or either House of Parliament, or to move or stir any foreigner or stranger with force to invade the United Kingdom or any other of her Majesty’s dominions or countries under the obeisance of her Majesty, and such compassings, imaginations, inventions, devices, or intentions, or any of them, shall express, utter, or declare, by publishing any printing or writing . . . . . . F3 or by any overt act or deed, every person so offending shall be guilty of felony, and being convicted thereof shall be liable . . . . . . F4 to be transported beyond the seas for the term or his or her natural life . . . . . . "
