Some of our magnificent members... do they condone fraud?
AT least 80 MPs face further humiliation over expenses, as auditors have found they claimed too much for their mortgages and must pay back £ thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money – that’s YOUR money.
Sources say an investigation ordered by Gordon Brown found a “ticking time bomb” of irregularities. Investigators have found MPs routinely claimed the full cost of mortgages on their second homes, even though they are only allowed to recoup the interest.
What a bunch of shysters and chancers. And we elected them through this sham of a democracy.
Whitehall sources predict many MPs will be ordered to pay back thousands of pounds claimed over the past five years in breach of the rules.
