Just my tuppenceworth but I think that the reason there are SO many posts about bad behaviour on the Tory benches is purely that they give SO many opportunities. It's hard to go a day without hearing of more corruption in government.
While they might be normalising it, a lot of what we've seen in the last couple of years is unheard of in my lifetime.
Like I said, it's difficult to highlight my point without pointing out that poor MP behaviour is more widespread than some suggest, without referencing it. Bit of a catch 22 there!

Dunno how old you are, but theres a decent list of various scandals here. I know Blair's government were dogged by it throughout and it's important they are exposed of course, but if used to present some parties as inherently good and others as inherently bad (which I suspect is people's motivation here) then I'm not sure how useful it all is, especially when in some cases it's allegations and not fact at all and everyone has a right to explain themselves before the witchunt starts.

I dunno, all just seems repetitive to me, but you're right, the current govt aren't shy of creating headlines.
