Now, how many men and women get help with that sort of thing? It's a personal responsibility thing, right? I don't think this has made the Telegraph hit list (I may be wrong), but why not?

Have a shufty, and if it hasn't then drop them a line.
Here he is mentioned back in March.

No mention of the family thing as such (was mentioned in our local paper), but it something along those lines here.

Seems Alex Salmond claimed £400 a month for food (something that's 'allowed') when Parlaiment wasn't even in session (something that isn't).


Oh 5 and Sinn Fein memebers claimed £500,000 Westminster related expenses between them when they refused to even visit the feckin place.

I've had enough now:-(
