Gerrymandering of committee membership

The scumbag 'nasty party' are trying to pobtain a majority on an important committee in order to dictate the contents of the agenda, notwithstanding they have no parliamentary majority to make such demands.

Don't all parties try to get a majority on the commitees?

They're entitled to a majority, providing they have a majority in the House of Commons. As we both know that is far from the case, so the scumbag 'nasty party's' antics are to be condemned!!!

I've always imagined it was fairer than that, that they would have equal numbers. But I guess that's too fair.
