Did you know that only a single #British#MP was ever executed for a non-political crime?
MPs have been serving the English parliament since 1593, & a good number died by execution.
But only one, MP for #Dorset in 1614, Mervyn Tuchet, 2nd Earl of Castlehaven (as Mervyn Audley) died not because of treason or for being a Royalist... but for raping his wife & "sodomy".
