    When I worked down south I rented a room in a house - I was allowed to run that rent through as a company expense. What I couldn't do was fill the room with all the niceties of home - I pay for SKY at home, but I couldn't pay for it again while down south and claim that cost back like that snot gobbling cretin we have 'running' the country did. All MP's expenses should be, as the Inland Revenue state, wholly and exclusively incurred as part of their job as a MP. This lot don't have their cake and eat it, they have their cake and then multiple cakes also. Fekin wonkers the lot of them!
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!

      WHS - (why)tf are we paying for Sky telly and stuff for these gits? And from what I can see, there is no party monopoly on greed in this area - they all seem to be grabbing swine.

          As someone posted in another thread its the rank hypocrisy that gets me.

          How can they expect to be in touch with the country when they are all busy with their snouts in the trough.

          Is there not one MP with a shred of integrity who will stand up and denounce this stuff?
