Criminal logic

It’s one thing Falkirk Council’s Labour leader saying: “If you have a criminal record, or any type of incident, that should be brought forward and discussed” (your report 19 April) but what about Lord Mike Watson, who has managed to hold on to not only his peerage but also his seat in the House of Lords?

The saying about people in glass houses comes to mind.
