I think we can get respect for Parliament back providing governments and oppositions are frank.
Society needs to condemn a little more and understand a little less.
If you look at things that really affect people's lives - sport, the arts, charities - they were always at the back of the queue for government money - health, social security, defence, pensions were all way ahead. And each of those areas - sports, the arts, the lottery - got relatively petty cash from the government.
