That's the same Oliver Letwin who is devising the plans for Tory spending cuts when they come to power http://www.telegraph.co.uk/new[...]-to-rescue-George-Osborne.html I'm assuming that -- at the very least -- there was actually a tennis court, a pipe, and a repair bill. Jack Straw, on the other hand, "... claimed for council tax he had never paid, luckily discovering his mistake and repaying the £1,500 only after the High Court ruled that all expenses claims had to be published." (source) Fucking sickening, isn't it. EDIT: Oh yeah, and one other thing... why the hell are MPs allowed to claim their taxes back on expenses? That's screwed up way beyond normal political pocket-lining. Reply | with quote | Posted by grufty jim 11th May 2009ce 16:57 In reply to: Re: I'm sorry (Merrick) |
