What's good for the goose is good for the gander

The current issue of The Tablet includes a two-page feature on Damian Green MP.

The piece is generally in praise of the former high cabinet minister and de facto deputy prime minister.

He had to resign his cabinet position because of allegations that pornography had been viewed on his work computer during his period as an opposition spokesman some time before 2008.

There were also claims of sexual harassment made against him by the writer Kate Maltby.

Damian Green, now a Conservative MP backbencher, is a close friend of Theresa May since they were in Oxford together in the 1970s.

The MP is a prominent Catholic in the UK. In October last year the Ashford Kent MP came top of The Tablet's list of the 100 most influentil Catholics in Britain.

If a Catholic priest was accused to have done what Damian Green has been alleged to have done he would now be out of ministry.

It's one of the many inconsistencies within the Catholic Church.
