Accrington Web - View Single Post - MP's vote on hiding expenses Thursday 22nd January

In a surprise move it appears that this vote tomorrow has been cancelled, after a question in Prime Ministers Questions asking why Mr Brown was whipping his MP's to vote for hiding the expenses receipts.

I support this and hope that it is a complete climb down. Hopefully Brown has realised that you cannot reunite trust in politicians if they are not accountable to the electorate over expenses.
