British voters want lying politicians to face consequences

Excellent research from UCL Constitution Unit, public in citizens jury and large quant study want politicians held to account for lying and misdemeanours and more accountability to parliament and the judiciary.

We do not ‘factor in’ bad behaviour in an indulgent way. We want them to be held to the same standards as everyone else. If not higher. Good research.
