Then I remember that they are newspapers and that one article covering a dozen or so honest ones wouldn't sell any newspapers... and then I also think...what would I do on a Sunday for blog material if I didn't have the troughers?<br /><br />The answer to all these things is so simple. Receipts for everything and all expenses on line every three months. No excuses<br /><br />Where did I hear that policy before?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-12436427649354477862009-11-01T15:11:35.893+00:002009-11-01T15:11:35.893+00:00This is just the tip of the ice-berg.

In other words if you are flying from Glasgow to London you must claim the full fare because "everyone else is doing it" so even if you are able to get a cheaper flight you still claim the full fare. I don't know about now but at one time you could be a couple of hundred pounds a week better off. There were lots of other benefits such as staying in the Union Jack club and subsequently claim for staying in a hotel which befitted your stature etc etc.brownliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09690872114535168567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-38453456285989592442009-11-01T12:58:38.136+00:002009-11-01T12:58:38.136+00:00Point taken Munguin.

By ripping into them at every opportunity does that make you love them? Is it working? Are you beginning to feel the cockles of you heart warmed by the notion that some opinionated gardener with ears like taxi doors and a tampon fixation is better than you or anyone else in the UK other than his mother?Munguinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16475165830302054002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-85239761417324382742009-11-01T11:39:59.353+00:002009-11-01T11:39:59.353+00:00Ah Munguin:

It's a job that needs no qualifications just like thier honourable friends in teh Commons and they don't seem to have to do much. Just turn up.<br /><br />What annoys me more than anything I think is that other people who work for the government, in any way at all, have to account of every halfpenny that they spend. These Lords can claim £170+ per day with no receipts. This is probably some tradition ging back to when Adam was a lad that said that an English gentleman's word was his bond and no one needed to see evidence.<br /><br />Well, whether it was true back then I don't know, but one thing's for sure, it ain't true now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-46739940260194702782009-11-01T11:17:06.941+00:002009-11-01T11:17:06.941+00:00It seems that there is nothing left in the British...It seems that there is nothing left in the British state that is not bankrupt or on the fiddle. We know that MP’s have been, it seems that their noble Lordships are and of course we are not allowed to know what the expenses for the Royals are like because they were exempted from Freedom of Information laws. So let’s assume that some Privy Councillor took one look at the Royal Expenses bill and thought “good lord, if this ever gets out there will be a revolution” better exempt them from that law that says the people ought to know how their money is spent. And when Gorbals Mick saw a similar list of MPs expenses he dropped his Waterford Crystal glass of Sweetheart Stout all over his orange swirly patterned hand stitched Axeminster and thought “we had better get this little lot exempted” from the same legislation. And when that failed him and his wife hailed a passing stretch limo to get down to Carter Ruck and spend half a million quid on delaying tactics so that his team could spend a year with the redacting pen and a lake of black ink.Munguinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16475165830302054002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-58079485716860089472009-11-01T02:18:36.429+00:002009-11-01T02:18:36.429+00:00Nothing surprises me anymore with the bunch of par...Nothing surprises me anymore with the bunch of parasites. Politics has to be cleaned out Tris and thoroughly. I'm sick of hearing how you won't get 'qualified' people if they don't get big money.
