The MPs’ act of ‘cleaning’ Parliament premises, which are already kept reasonably clean, comes across as a supreme farce aimed at drawing attention of citizens and making them believe that the lawmakers are alive to the burning issue. Instead of this, the VIPs should have selected some remote city/town in the country to prove their sincerity to the cause (News page, “Cleaning the house,” July 14).
