After reading the report in the Mail today about the details of Mr Griffiths's texting experiences - specifically referring to sado-masochistic fantasies, I really laughed at the final detail.
I know it's a serious issue, and I should rise above such school-boy humour, but I did chortle when I read that Mr Griffiths has 'had the whip withdrawn'.

I do believe that power - even a limited amount of it - can lead to powerful people being surrounded by people who tell them how right and wonderful they are.
The weaker among them tend to believe it far more quickly and deeply than they ever should (President Trump springs to mind!) and it leads them to believe, and then act, as though they are invincible.
Clearly Mr Griffiths had no notion that he would ever be discovered, much less called to account for his stupid behaviour.

Flonska - // Perhaps the good people in his constituency might wish to have some input on that proposal? //
Indeed they might, and since an election is years away, they may ignore his stance of 'toughing it out' - another example of his appalling arrogance, coupled with his appalling judgement, and campaign to have him de-selected.
I would if he was my MP.

douglas - // I imagine his 'poor family' will have had an inkling of his tastes and opinions from (as yet?) unreported shenanigans. //
What makes you think that?
There are millions of men who indulge in behaviour that their wives and families know nothing about! I am sure you don't need me to spell it out?
(Clue - it involves the internet and it's worth billions of dollars!)

yeah Flawnska ( I love that name! )
I wondered if he had resigned the whip
or thrown in the sponge altogether
and he will not resign being an MP
BUT....
in the C19 a minister who left office submitted to a bye-election so that his constituents could vote on how he did
last done in 1830s
also the auditor general could assess your financial probity and charge you if he wasnt satisfied ....
Banks when he left office got a bill for £1300 - 1820 or thereabouts
( at least quarter of a mill now)

Denton - // … please don’t assume you are superior to me or anyone else on here,because it is only in your mind. //
I don't assume anything of the kind - that is actually in your mind, rather than mine!
// As it happens, you do seem a tad arrogant and sarcasm doesn’t suit you. //
Your opinion, to which you are entitled, but to be clear, I wasn't being sarcastic - I meant exactly what I said, as I said it.
Hope this clears up any misunderstanding.
