Need to throw this slimy con artist in jail for a while and claw back his ill-gotten profits. What an asshole.

Edit: And also fire and bar from public service whatever dumb fuck hired him.

I have a feeling this isn't a one off lapse of judgement. To bad we're treat whistle blowers like the enemy.

Public admonishment before the House is a very rare measure that has only been used five times since the early 1900s. It's referred to as being "brought before the bar" in reference to a brass rail meant to bar strangers from entering the chamber.

It's unclear what consequences Firth could face should he decline to answer questions before the House. Monday's motion suggests that the government operations committee will "consider" Firth's testimony and " if necessary, recommend further action."
