    Another dishonest MP jailed

    More good news today as another greedy trough feeder is jailed. One year is far too lenient thought, the Judge should be sacked

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-12418223

    Former MP Eric Illsley has been given a year's jail sentence for dishonestly claiming parliamentary expenses.

    Illsley, 55, pleaded guilty to £14,000 of expenses fraud last month relating to claims he made for his second home between 2005 and 2008.

    He becomes the second former MP, after once Labour colleague David Chaytor, to be jailed for expenses offences.

    Mr Justice Saunders said Illsley had breached the "high degree of trust" placed in MPs by the public.

    His jailing came on the same day as former Labour MP Jim Devine was found guilty on two counts of dishonestly claiming £8,385 of expenses by using false invoices for cleaning and printing work. Devine has yet to be sentenced.


    He knew what was coming - turned up with his toothbrush and pyjamas

    It started off bad Arthur what with one of the "usual suspect" handwringers on the former $lut thread but I must admit it's got a lot better.

    I always remember 2 years ago the doom merchants on this Forum predicting the MP's would get away with it when the Telegraph started breaking the news. Looks like Margaret Moran is coming under some serious investigation http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/news...-expenses.html theres also a few bits & pieces here http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/news.../mps-expenses/
