Expenses - again!

Its been a while since my last post, but it's really looking like fun in London at the moment.

"The House of Commons authorities have asked police in London to investigate the leaking of details of MPs' expenses."

"A spokesman for the House claimed that there were "reasonable grounds to believe a criminal offence may have been committed". "

I'll bloody say.

£6000 for a cleaner for Gordy and his brother

Jack Straw claiming back full council tax for 4 years, when he was only paying 50% for a second home. And claiming for work done on his own constituency home under the second home allowance rules to repair dilapidated fixings (which one was the 'second' home then?)

Hazel Blears switching second home allowance 3 times to 3 different properties in the space of one year.

The list goes on.

When interviewed, the universal reply is that they've done nothing wrong, as it was all within the rules. Who made the rules?

No wonder the country's sick to the eye teeth of this lot. And they sit there and wonder what's going on.
