Change protocol to allow an MP to call another a liar in the House if it is true
Require the Speaker to desist from taking punitive action against an MP who accuses another of being a liar unless clearly done as mere abuse
The convention of using only euphemisms, terminological inexactitude etc, when reasonably describing another MP a liar, brings Parliament into disrepute/makes it into a laughing stock
