They chip chip chip and get their way again.
Scottish Tory MP Douglas Ross has told football authorities he will no longer accept refereeing appointments when Parliament is sitting.
It means he will not be in the running to officiate at next summer's World Cup in Russia.
Mr Ross was criticised for missing a debate on Universal Credit to run the line at a Champions League match.
He defended that decision in a letter to constituents saying he knew he would not be able to speak in the debate.
But now, in a statement given to online community newspaper Inside Moray, the Moray MP said he recognised he could no longer balance his football job with his political one.
