9 have been accused of writing bad cheques

17 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses

71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit

14 have been arrested on drug-related charges

8 have been arrested for shoplifting

21 are currently defendants in lawsuits

84 have been arrested for drink driving in the last year

Which organisation is it?

Its the 635 members of the House of Commons, the same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year, designed to keep the rest of us in line.

I just wanted to share this with you and invite your comments,please.

Mutt... I take your point, I was not aware of what you have pointed out.I received my information from a reliable source and with good intentions passed it on.But many thanks.

This same thing has been sent out about the U.S. House of Representatives. Yes, some have been caught for misdemeanor charges, and a few probably for felonies, but these numbers seem quite high, and, since it appears to be almost identical for both countries, I doubt it is real.

*EDIT* - I just found it on Snopes.com. The numbers you give for the House of Commons are very similar to the numbers given for the U.S. House of Representatives.

That's just an Internet myth. Obviously there are some people among those who are criminals themselves but the number is fictional.

I couldn't be an MP, I'm far too honest. This country needs a revolution, I'd lead but I'm busy today.

Brendan Behan when asked > "why dont you become a politician"?
replied: " I cant I only have one face".
Your statistics are a scandal to this country. The media should plaster this all over the place. I never vote because of it.
The trouble is the british tolerate this crap.

My father had a saying "don't do as I do. Do as I tell you!". Sounds like theses @ssholes adhere to this theory and believe they are above the law.
Maybe Sheriff Joe Arpaio should do a crime suppression sweep in congress!
