Re: £10,000 offered to leak MP's expenses

Hyndburn Constituency.

Our M P has regrets over expenses. But it leaves questions unanswered; he moved his second home; second homes? He bought things for this move but did he walk out of the first second home with just his clothes and what happened to furnishing ‘left behind?’ Or where they left behind? Ebay? And how often are they ‘allowed’ to claim for such moves?

And with all the fuss about expenses why did he wait to explain about his expenses till; possible hoping against hope that as a back bencher his expenses would not be highlighted; and made his explanation needed?



And what about the Olympics? Will some M Ps rent out at vastly inflated rents these vitally necessary second homes and if so who will get the rents?

To be honest and to stay within the rules of decency that should go into the national purse and not into the coffers of the greedy.


If some ‘independent’ body sets the Pay and conditions for M Ps at an industry level then industry standards should also apply; the ability of the elector to remove; not after 2 - 3 – 4- years but at the time of any transgression or shift of allegiances from one party to another one.
