It's important to recognise that he's been collared not for giving jobs to his family (which is fine) but for paying them more than reasonable amounts (which isn't).
Conway also apparently claimed for a second house in London when he's MP for, er, Bexley, which is 13 miles away.

Yeah but it's a long 13 miles, cabbies hate travelling south of the river and Bexley station's a bit nippy at this time of year.....
