It seems that certain MP’s have something to hide when it comes to their expenses.
The Speaker of the House has launched a High-Court action to prevent any release of our esteemed Prime Ministers expenses being released.
It all seems strange, as we already know some of the expenses that he has clamed in the past, such as:-
£17,017 – Cost of staying away from main home
£18,961 – Office running costs
£86,055 – Staffing Costs
£9,557 – Air Travel
All taken from last years Members’ Allowance Expenditure April 2006 – March 2007 listing.
If I didn’t think there was anything suspicious before all this started, then I certainly do now!
Does Michael Martin think that his actions will help the general public believe that MP’s don’t have something to hide, in particularly Gordon Brown! More to follow I’m sure.
