The news that the Lib Dems are going to boycott the Speaker's committee because they see it as a stitch-up is welcome. Iain Dale is calling for the Tories to follow suit.
But if there is not to be a Labour majority on the committee, how then should it be staffed? It seems to me that Labour and Conservatives both have too much of a vested interest in the findings - they both desperately need to win vindication for their actions in the past. It seems to me then that it is only the LibDems, of the major three parties, who can justify their presence on the committee.
Two LibDems, one each from the Scots and Welsh Nats, and one of the independents, plus a token Red and a token Blue; that's the answer.
