Is it just me ...but I am sick of watching the MP's of all parties wriggling and squirming their way out of the expenses scandel.....
Do they not realise that most people do not earn anywhere near what they are claiming for expenses alone....where the hell do they think the money comes from to pay for it all.....we the tax payer should be squaring up to this blatant abuse of our money......This is about morals and clearly most of them have none ...so i think get rid of all the buggers and lets start again....The elders in my village are wise ....let the Elders have a go.... ;D ;D ;D

I for one will not be satisfied until the MPs that have defrauded are brought to justice and made to pay with prison sentences. All this about changing the rules and apologising in parliament is just a massive smokescreen to hide the real offenders who have acted criminally imo.

Why doesn't the Oatcake have a crack at standing?
We could have our own election to sort a candidate out. Then all chip in towards the entrance fee, then get Stokies to vote them in.
We could split the salary between us all, then make political decisions using the 'Polls' area. The results of the polls would then be fed back to the house by our representative.

MPs can only get away what the public allow them to but let's face it those on thee fiddle will just get elected again, including the one in question. People are blinded by their party politics affiliation. Party politics has destroyed this country. Political parties should be abolished and those elected should all be independent and voted in on merit - not whether they are red or blue. |

It amazes me that the fact that they're going to give some of the money back makes it all better. How about we let everybody in prisoner for theft out if they promise to give back what they took?

Any ex or serving armed forces like me will testify that any proven fraudulent claim for mileage allowance, subsistence, child boarding school allowance or any other allowances would result in any combination of stripping of rank, heavy fine , imprisonment and dismissal depending on the severity of the offence. So why have those MPs who are blatantly defrauding the treasury not brough to task in front of a court of law? |

Agree LL, also any private sector position.
Trouble is they made their own rules so loose that they weren't breaking rules (well most of them), it was just very immoral.
