It makes a damn sight more sense than only people who are responsible for setting rules/laws being sacked for breaking them and everyone else is seemingly exempt, (BFP Clause).
I don't see why it is so hard to understand. He shouldn't be sacked for breaking the law. He should have his wrist slapped and apologise for being a prat, as with the others. Even that seems too much to ask. He should be sacked for effectively telling the public the rules he helped devise are essentially optional and worthless. This would be the case if he just stood on his doorstep and gave a statement to that effect - instant sacking.
