I thought the rules had been tightened. How can they still do this?

Lets face it, they're all at it still. What did Dave say, "Money's no object". With their expenses its true.

For as long as they can, they will. We could stop paying MPs altogether, but then we'd just get the paid lackeys of organised capitalism and organised labour. Hang on a minute...

[giveup]

Exactly, how many of the present lot have had a normal job.

// Some MPs who have read the report believe that Mrs Miller's claims do not amount to a deliberate attempt to break the rules. //

Ok, so she's just stupid then. Either way she has to go.

If she had any decency she would fall on her sword as it is clearly out of touch by a long chalk.

But then do any of the honorable member have an ounce of decency between them?

[ABerrant]

You do realise this is an investigation of expenses claims made "between 2005 and 2009" ?

Same old story of their noses in the trough, We are all in this together my arse

She deserves to be sacked for wearing that jacket.

Where the f*** did she find that? Some sort of circus shop?

Clowns R Us ?

[redvanman]

Jail any MP for bending the rules they are in them jobs to be trusted
