Yet Another Expenses Fiasco

Geoff Hoon and Alistair Darling are the latest to be caught up in an expenses scandal.

It is absolutely unbelievable how much money politicians are fleecing from us.

Well IMHO, Cameron is missing the point. NO MP, ought to have a second residence funded by the tax payer. What's wrong with them staying in a B&B or an Hotel. If they really must have a second home..... Why don't we just house them in a Council run block of flats, reserved for MPs?

Paracites and scroungers the whole sorry bunch of them! And they wonder why poloticians and polotics are regarded with contempt.... utter scum.

I've asked this before.... How many tax payers does it take to fund just one of these unthinking, overpaid, nothing knowing, lobby fodder, hypocrytic  windbags?

Evil or Very Mad
