Aw crap, I thought you could still hang them.

Hey, I knew it couldn't be capital punishment, they won't let you into the EU unless you have an enlighten justice system.

Seriously though, if found guilty it would be enough punishment.

I think you would be letting your politicians off too easily. This would be similar to an MP being paid by Nazi Germany to run a propaganda campaign for Geramny in 1939.

MP of Baghdad Central indeed.

In "A Child's History of England" by Charles Dickens...there were all sorts of tales of what happened to those who crossed the King or Queen with treason. Drawing, quartering, dragging by 4 horses with ropes attached to limbs, heads on pikes, bodies buried, with heads left out to the elements and animals....etc.

Definitely impressed me as a youngster that being treasonous was really *not* a good thing!
