We all know people love "12345" for a password, or better yet, the unbreakable "password" but should we need to remind politicians to use strong passwords and not share them? The answer, it seems, remains yes.

Engadget is reporting that three Conservative MPs came out over the weekend admitting to sharing their credentials with interns and other members of staff.

In the space of the last few days, Nadine Dorries MP, Nick Boles MP and Crispin Blunt MP claimed that they share passwords with fellow office workers to perform tasks on their behalf. Ms. Dorries said that her team logged into her computer using her details " every day," which was a message that was later echoed by Mr. Boles in a tweeted reply. Mr. Blunt later explained on Channel 4 News that he allowed such actions because "we don't live a life where we are actually able to spend lots of time sitting in our office browsing our computers."

We know these people aren't the brightest when it comes to technology, but everyone should know better.
