I think one strike and you're out is better, i.e. one complaint from one member of electorate and that's it....flung out on their backside no messing.

For instance public accountability is my bug with this crowd. How many times do you see one of them caught being naughty and when questioned they refuse to comment, usually with their hands hiding their faces, walking as quick as possible away from the camera ?

Point is, say for instance you had a business and one of your employees did that to you, naturally you'd not want to employ people like that who refuse to answer for their actions.

I often think I'd make a good journalist, I'd like to see one of those skunks avoid answering me...OI ! I'M ASKING YOU A F'KN QUESTION DON'T YOU WALK AWAY FROM ME WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU!

...and if he still tried the overpaid arrogant stunt give him another chance to answer after a good wallop.

My belief is when someone is paid by the public, then he has to answer to the public when questioned. Not unreasonable.
