Honestly.......:dozey::(

Let's hope that no other MP has done the same.

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

What a disgusting thing to do.

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

Disgusting and not even an allowable expense, what is wrong with these people, are they really this stupid or so full of self importance/ contempt for the plebs

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

You'd have thought that, since all the expenses nonsense came to light, our glorious leaders would be forensically diligent in checking what they're claiming for to weed out the spurious or ill-judged. Clearly the message hasn't sunk in for some of them.

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

Unfortunately the MP's make these kind of claims "because they can" It's about time the rules were changed to prevent it, but I can't see it happening soon.

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

Again its one rule for them and another rule for us it seems.

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

It amazes me that firstly she would actually be so mean as to claim expenses for a £17 rememberance wreath and secondly she's so out of touch that she cannot see how bad it looks. :rolleyes:

Yes, good people of Rotherham, do you really want this person as your representitive?

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

To be honest with u this is a bit one sided since Boris was also caught doing the same a few years ago.

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

They do it.
then if they do get caught doing it they say the usual "I'm ever so sorry. it was oversight on my part. I'll pay it back"

and we say "Thank you"

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

its easier to seek forgiveness than it is to seek permission ;)

Re: Labour MP puts remembrance wreath on expenses
 

See must have filled out the claim form and submitted it in the first ruddy place. So how can it have been submitted by mistake if she knew she was not allowed to claim ????

Absolutely disgusting but not the first and won't be the last politics seems to attract the shameless, bare faced and mickey takers if she had an ounce of integrity she'd pay it back and make both a public apology and hefty donation to a services charity or help for heroes won't hold my breath.
