What annoys me is the 'expenses' claimed by certain MPs for apartments close to the Houses of Parliament...especially the ones who live in Central London anyway.
Apparently there's about to be an audit and a number of MPs have been repaying dodgy expenses - I read this in the Littlejohn column the other day.

I think I read that some cabinet MPs are also claiming london accomodation costs (legally) even though they are getting free grace/favour homes - except Blunket who has refused to claim his.

These are 'socialists' - isnt everyone supposed to be equal except some are more equal than others?
