Car Travel Of MP!!!
Just read a report in the Telegraph, Blackburn And Rossendale MP Janet Annderson has claimed nearly £14,000 Mileage on her expenses. In this day and age when we all we seem to hear about is Global Warming is it not about time that she started using public transport more often?

It’s Darwen and Rossendale BERNADETTE. Jack Straw is MP for Blackburn. It’s one of the strange constituency boundaries that were fiddled into place to ensure that a particular political party was guaranteed a seat in Parliament.
£14K is nothing compared to some expenses claims and she does have to travel from down there to up here. And there is no chance of seeing her on anything as common as a bus. Buses are for us peasants. |

Sorry it is Darwen and Rossendale. That is just for using her car, I am not disputing the expenses. I was just wondering why can she not use the train to travel to and from Westminster? Lots of other MP's do and after all we are being warned about traffic pollution all the time.

In fact adding up all her expenses the total is £19:968. Jack Straws come to £9:250, now I am wondering why such a big difference?

Thanks Steeljack. Does this mean im going to have to find a dragon or a monster for an avatar then? By the way even though i live in Rossendale my MP is Greg Pope. |
Re: Car Travel Of MP!!!
Never mind car expenses what about postage, I wonder how much they charge for sending E Mails?

Re: Car Travel Of MP!!!
Not raising another thread so thought I'd add it on here. MP's have just voted theirselves another weeks holiday per year. They will now be getting 91 days!! That is four times as much as the average worker gets!!!

The simple fact is that we live a long way away from London. If we lived in Tower Hamlets then you could perhaps question it but really is it that unreasonable. |
