MPs get it all on the cheap!

You'd have thought that MPs would have stopped wanting to see their dirty laundry washed in public. Perhaps not. The sorry story goes on. Figures have been released to show what the leading lights got up to with their expenses. TV licences paid for, as in Blair's case! Gordon Brown got £2,380 for cleaning his house. As a part-time MP job-sharing with an MSP couldn't he find the time for a once-over with Henry?

David Cameron apparently 'used the system' to claim £21,000 in a year to pay his mortgage. Now I wish I could tap into such a system. Perhaps my bank could assist? The big question is, will he stop this practice now, or will it continue. I'm beginning to feel I may want the Conservatives back in power, but, please Mr. Cameron, let it all be on a proper, decent basis. No more sleaze, spin, and deception. Give us a cast iron guarantee that you are going to clean up this tawdry mess once and for all. If not, then how can you blame the bogus bonus gatherers in the City, the gravy train merchants in the quangos, and those billionaires paying less tax than their cleaners (maybe the same cleaners as used by Gordon Brown)?

The one shocker on the list was that greedy Prescott! He used £4,000 for his grocery bills in one year! Taxpayers money for his trips to the supermarket. Nearly £80 a week on Tesco's Finest! It's an outrage.

The rot must stop now.
