Re: Expenses !
I will stay away from party lines as much as I can as I do not wish to start another war!
My favourite expense claims to date are the ones where 50" tvs, SMEG fridges and huge leather sofas are being claimed for (and paid out on) but not delivered to the second homes, no no, they're being delivered to the first! Favourite excuse so far was for 'convenience and so that it cold be transported on at a later date'. IF I'd ever tried that on myexpenses I would have expected the sack and probabale investigation for fraud!! Oh well, make room at the trough all you poor suffereing only work half the bloomin year MPs, there's little folk out here dealing with the real world........................

Re: Expenses !
the health minsiter is paying back his over zealous £41,0000-maybe if they all paid back their silly exspenses the government could signficantly reduce the amount of money its borrowed???

Re: Expenses !
Who watched BBC's 'Question Time' last night ??
It was SO nice to see Margaret Beckett completely banjaxed and trying to hold her temper when she got well and tryuly heckled by the audience.
Even Mighty Ming came in for quite a bit of stick !
