Its hard not to wonder if they're also held to a different standard; there's no way a Green candidate who beat the shit out of a younger kid with a bed leg and was credibly accused of being a bully later in life would be allowed to stand for election.
Yeah definitely a different standard, but as the article points out, they try and hold their own MPs to that standard.
