Actually, I don't agree with it whoever claims it, whether they be Labour, Tory, Lib Dem etc..I am just aware of one councillor doing it at the moment, but would willingly expose others if I found out.

But YOU aren't exposing anyone because if you were YOU would mention a name instead of dropping unproven hints hoping some naïve soul will say, "Oh does he mean such & such?", hardly exposing, more hoping someone else will take responsibility for your rumour.
If you have proof then,

You did not ask me :D

This is like Hotel California, you can check out but you can never leave, After all, the mods have better things to do than sweep up after you, You irresponsibly spread it, why expect someone else to follow you with a mop & bucket to clean up for you?

Re: Councillors Claiming expenses
 
I have just been re-reading the initial posts on this thread, and, if read properly, all I asked was whether the residents of Hyndburn were happy with the way the 'child care' expenses were being claimed. It's a yes or no answer, so why the hu-ha about naming the individual?

If you are all happy, then fine, end of discussion. I have said no laws were broken as such, it was just an ethical question that has got out of hand.

As Less posted, you haven't exposed anyone.

Just made accusations, and given a few scant details as to who the person is.

Grow a pair of these.

Then either name and shame, and face litigation if no rules have been broken, or shut up, and leave this person, and their child alone.

You've implicated an individual.

An actual, totally innocent girl.

That is wrong.

How is the girl implicated? She's not done anything wrong.

How can I shut up when you lot keep stirring it up again?

If your question was theoretical, about child care expenses, and what we think in general, why give clues as to her identity, and her age.

That is wrong.
