If you thought this thread was finished it's not yet. But first a gif of a dog and a cat - as many are complaining this thread is raising the blood pressure.
To see a "tracked changes" version for MPs a great site to see these would be TheyWorkForYou.

Simply search google for "[MP Name] Register of Interests" and you will often find them near the top results.
