What has YOUR MP claimed?

[Echowitch]

Just noticed all the outskirts of London MP's claiming for second homes. Obviously because its such a hardship driving 20 minutes in to central London grrrrrrr

Where's my flaming torch and pitchfork !!!!!!

Sorry, but these lists prove nothing. Only if the lists are broken down to a much more detailed level can you make any reasonable judgement. Only if you know whether IT costs are spent on all kinds of high tech doodahs that'll enable your MP to work from anywhere in the country, or if it's been spent on making his X-Box part of a home entertainment system, do you have the right to complain.
Right now I see more than half the claims going to staffing, which makes a lot of sense.

Bon, stop being argumentative for being argumentative's sake. You have no point here, your list proves nothing. That doesn't mean your MP is or isn't a thief, it just proves nothing.
You're getting to the point where we might take your pitchfork away and replace it with a wet noodle.

 

[Lump]

I love how you try to be condescending.

sorry if that is how it came across, it was late and cider was winning. and was not my intention to be condescending. i did right out my reasons for against the whole argument, but then i looked into your MP good luck with that

 

[Lovetone]

Ok then, justify my MP's expenses to me.

I defy you to do it.

get a grip

noone with a right mind really gives a ****.
they should get a higher salary then none of this would happen.

...If I could blag 150K on expenses, i well would. haha

 

[Kitch]

think you have missed the point, whatever has been done we can't really do anything about it now, so you need to make the best of a bad situation and play MP expenses top trumps

No but the fact she and her husband were claiming seperate homing allowances not having a main home but instead having 2 secondary homes does.

 

[Robbo]

what are you moaning about ? do you know what the prices should be ? the whole argument is a media freak show

Lump, I don't know what they should be but I know what they shouldn't be ...

Oh really? Have you enquired as to the reasons for this? Unless you did and have uncovered the truth, which you haven't, I suggest wheeling your neck in a bit. You're not making yourself look any smarter. Although it does fit your pitchfork mob image, I'll give you that.

Again, that little list you posted proves NOTHING. Only a detailed, accountant verified list would prove anything.

I'm not saying your MP did or didn't do anything wrong, I'm just saying that you are screaming "guilty" without any evidence AT ALL. Face it, the media lie as much as the MP's do.

Then if he was innocent, why did he resign
