Well, never in a million years will my tirade on this subject be published at the Castle. Especially as i am feeling doubly put out after yesterday when Baxter slipped in a birdy on the ninth which left me quite out of pocket on a particularly rare bottle of Oban at the club. Still, on the bright side Baxter's latest christmas cake was most put out by our drinking habits and left in quite a stink for an "early night", ha ha! Serves him right!
Anyway, to the matter in hand, in my opinion MP's are only doing what the rest of us cant and that is milk expenses for all they are worth! If your are told you can claim your second (or tenth) mortgage you are jolly well going to, regardless of what the proletariat think. Employ your wife? Absolutely, as long as she is claimable too.
I know far too many MP's to comment personally except to say that the words Ivory Tower could be battered around. They are only bending the rules that are in place and as such the welfare-ites bend the rules that are in place for them (who incidentally are usually the first to whinge about wasting tax payers money, make them work for dole, that will sort them out)
So whats my point? Im not sure except to say the Media will not let this one lie so if you are going to claim for your eastern european wife / cleaner / duck house, make sure no one knows about it.
