True, but if you want to fire somebody for slacking off, he probably won't be the only one.
It would be a bit unfair to only focus on him then because they can. So, it all depends on what evidence there is, and if it's a shared computer etc.
If it's not a shared computer AND it could only have been him AND that's an awful lot of spending time on it...well, in that period of time he was a lazy git and perhaps he can't be trusted with t'internet and should go on some sorta course and hand in his personal phone, with everything on the work phone/computers nicely locked down :)
Whether or not there's a rule against it, it's a difficult one to argue that he was busy representing his constituents interests whilst working in the House.
He'll have to go I'd have thought. If they try to style it out, they run the risk of the nature of the evidence being leaked. If they insist it's a fix up, are they really going to accuse the Police of planting evidence in the HoP?
