Well this bill is from the film/documentary The Ministry of Truth. The interviewer interviews many MP's and asks them if they would support the bill. Its really quite interesting - he gets all the MP's to agree that they have an obligation to be honest to the public...then whips out the bill and every time the MP refuses it.

If I remember correctly it was stated in the documentary that the punishment for lying would be the removal of power with no allowance to be re-elected.

Well perhaps, however at the end of the documentary one MP does in fact say he will gladly support it.  Unfortunately while it was being introduced it ran out of time. Give this a read:

And to dahermit's post:

Wow...I had no idea a system like that was in place. It is shocking indeed.
