KEY independent MP Tony Windsor says if Peter Slipper is found guilty, the 'full weight of the law' should be against him.

Mr Windsor said The matter was before a court and everyone had the right to the presumption of innocence and due process, he said.

But if the court were to find against Mr Slipper, the "weight of the law" should be thrown against him.

Mr Windsor said earlier he would consider a no-confidence motion against Mr Slipper in parliament, but he would need more information before making a final decision.
