There is a big difference between possibly breaking rules and definitely breaking the law, Sarko committed a crime whilst President and was found guilty in a court of law which he's now appealing. So far Hammond has only been accused of possibly breaking the lobbying rules after he left Parliament.
What I have a problem with is the ability for former politicians to use their influence and contacts immediately after leaving public office to earn vast sums of money, it just stinks.

Misuse of word earn. |

Its not just politics - industry has similar issues in my opinion with non exec directors - generally mates of the CEO - who contribute little for much!
I'm jealous!

This isn't just corruption, it's world-leading British corruption.
