If anyone is bored and looking for something to read, they've put the scans and details of all the MP's expenses online.

Link to Anne Snelgrove's : http://mpsallowances.parliament.uk/mpslordsandoffices/hocallowances/allowances%2Dby%2Dmp/anne%2Dsnelgrove/

I had a quick read and got bored. Looks like she shops in Sainsbury's and Argos a lot and has mobiles with Orange and Vodafone. If anyone spots anything interesting post it here. I wonder what kind of toilet paper she uses?

Interesting watching on the Beeb news tonight, Cameron shown in his country pile and apologising for over claiming, and that woman who has had to resign over flipping to save capital gains tax shown in a bay windowed terrace!  I never did get a reply from Cameron when I offered to undercut by £200 for cutting his wisteria!

These expenses on line are just daft most of it is blacked out so you can;t really tell who's claimed for what ?

They all seem corrupt to me, all over claiming to get extra money as if they don't earn enough as it is ?!

Apparently the Telegraph is doing a supplement with all the details tomorrow (Sat 20th)*

*or at least I think I read that somewhere.  Caveat emptor.

I thought there were about 1000 pages? That's a hell of a supplement.

Their political editor (name forgotten) confirmed this on BBC news this morning.
