Will MPs be allowed to ciommit murder ?

[modeller]

Now that the MPs being prosecuted for the criminal offence of fraud and theft are claiming parliamentary immunity does that mean all the other 400 who have or are being asked to pay back their improper gains will also get away with it ? How about Geoffrey Archer maybe he will be able to claim for wrongful arrest and detention ? If they are successful in their plea what is to stop any of them from claiming immunity for any crime including murder. ?

PS Someone writing to The Times has pointed out that Parliament could could pass a Bill of Attainder against them, by name, for acts against the State or Crown.That would quieten their plea that this is only a matter for Parliament and not the courts! The maximum penalty on such a Bill against them is death (which Parliament would not, could not, impose but that still leaves life imprisonment )
