The Queen’s Speech says that we can remove a dodgy MP? Er, no it doesn’t

You think that, from the Queen’s Speech, if an MP has been a Very Naughty Boy or a Very Naughty Girl and enough people (10% of the electorate) signs a petition to remove him or her within 8 weeks then that MP will lose his seat?

Think again: What the Queen didn’t say is MPs in Parliament then decide whether or not to agree with you ….. and if they don’t he or she stays.
