Establish professional standards for elected representatives.

There have been too many examples of dishonesty, xenophobia and general unpleasant behaviour from our elected representatives who seem to act as if they are above the law.

We understand you're concerned about professional standards for elected representatives, however it's not clear what you want those standards to be. It's also not clear how these standards differ from those already in place through the MPs Code of Conduct, breaches of which are investigated by the Committee on Standards following a referral by the independent Parliamentary Commissioner on Standards. You can find out more about the Commissioner here: https://www.parliament.uk/mps-lords-and-offices/standards-and-financial-interests/parliamentary-commissioner-for-standards/
