Hi VAN...Yes they just seem to keep saying "We have done nothing wrong" They just don't get it do they ? As for their great leader,,well, he's too busy saving the world and hobnobbing with the important people to be too busy putting his party in line.
AL G... We ordinary people are tightening our belts in order to get through these tough times yet the greedy MPs still vote themselves large pay rises fiddle all these housing expenses. If they can't afford to run their second homes themselves then they shouldn't have them, they should be in B&B s

Q: How many MPs are there? Ans: 646.
They have just received their 2.33% pay rise in spite of their £93,000,000 annual expenses. Whatever do they do with their ordinary pay? One MP received £97,892 of public cash over a period of seven years for his 2nd home. But he does better than two homes, in fact, he has 22 homes!!!
The Committee on Standards in Public Life is due to report before the end of the year. “We are going to change the rules” said Ms Harman.
The last four years expenses will be published in July giving MPs enough time to edit them. Apparently the smallest amount claimed by any MP was £47,737. It’s not all greed by the government though, after all,Jacqui Smith is offering a 15% free discount voucher for every family to spend in B&Q so that we can prevent the burglary crime wave taking over in the recession. Nothing will change - it’s just the dark side of capitalism.

The OSCARS for these stars will be held in July of this year, when the full list will be open to public inspection.
Just wait and see how these rats attack each other then,when they see that someone close to them,possibly in the same cabinet, has managed to fiddle even more then they did.

Nothing will be done; as they will just say they were within the rules! There will be a lot of them squirming at the moment; knowing their ‘transactions’ could be made public soon. The only thing that is clear; is that they have taken us all for mugs and to say they have squandered immense amounts of money would be an understatement! And all the while they are taxing us to death… How do they sleep at night?

So, She had a flat paid for by the taxpayer while renting out her own flat, and claimed for another home. 3 homes when there are people who are in danger of losing their only home. The perks these idiots get are ridiculous, they should be made accountable and the allowances should be more realistic.
Give them a council flat or B&B in London if they need to stay overnight

Power corrupts........absolutely

Not sure but our office is taking bets on how many will NOT be named. They won't give a b*gger anyway: just say, "I've done nothing wrong" and brazen it out - as usual.
