    It’s one rule for THEM & another rule for US – Dual standards. We should be working as a team & they should be Leading by Example (a GOOD example)

    Silly Peter!

    Totally fed up with MPs.
    We need an unbiased reporting medium which objectively shows the real situation of government spending and the results of taxation and other gvt decisions.
    Newspapers have their own political spin!!! so they are useless.

    Well done Peter Rhodes for your comments very interesting. These MPs should give back the house and contents and stop being so very greedy

    You have it, every week each MP should have to fill in his spending and free bees, most Mps are just above criminals with their gigery pockery and if they wheren’t protected as Mps a lot of them would be in prison, that is if we could find any room in there, as Churchill once said “never in the annuls of history have so few took so much from so many and given it to so many (lay abouts)” Churchill did say something like this,but that was another day another time another eara

    The above comment should have read “never in the annuls of history have so few taken so much from so many and put it in their back pocket”
