Christmas banged up - shame it's not 6 years

Another Labour "don't do as I do, do as I say" hypocrite in the slammer . The one that galls me is that Margaret Moran bitch who faked insanity to avoid jail

Totally agreed.
Put where he belongs. He's a criminal stealing OUR money.

Now, lets get some transparency behind the house of lords expense scandals

[johncar54]

I wonder how many other countries have a second chamber which the members are required to attend voluntarily ?

Is it any wonder that they then get inventive with their expenses ?

If the country needs the House of Lords, or any second chamber, then pay them, if not abolish it.

Some get paid a salary, most claim allowances and expenses.

Allowances and expenses are free from tax and NI

Those who claim the daily rate for attendance connected with appropriate Parliamentary work
claim £300 per day.
No transparancy at all. A gentlemans word is his bond......ho ho ho

Merely confirms what a lot have always thought.

Many Parliamentarians are nothing more than self-important, self-serving, sanctimonious shysters.

Some are thieves too.
