Alarmingly, I want to believe that it's true.

Quote:
Can you imagine relying on the services of an organisation that has a little more than 600 employees and has the following statistics?

29 have been accused of spouse abuse
7 have been arrested for fraud
19 have been accused of writing bad cheques
117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
3 have done time for assault
71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
4 have been arrested on drug-related charges
8 have been arrested for shoplifting
21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
84 have been arrested for drink driving in the last year

Which organisation is this?

The House of Commons.

I couldn't find anything in Snopes about it but I'm sure I've seen something similar for the US congress.
