Parliament is farce

British politicians have voted In parliament to pardon Alan Turing, codebreaker and computer pioneer. While I have complete sympathy with the dead great man, the logic of this is that everyone convicted under a law which is later repealed should be pardoned, as should anyone who perfoms some small deed for the nation or who is friends with his influential local mp.
While writing this I heard of a member of the house of lords confessing to a crime, in the house of lords. He has used contacts in the dvla to trace drivers throwing litter.
It will be incredible if this man is not interviewed by the police and prosecuted.
