What did your MP claim?

They've blacked out all the serious stuff! What an utter dis-grace! They're laughing at us the bunch of crooks! What kind of craven 'democracy' do we live in?

It's amazing how little you can actually see. You can't see any evidence of flipping for example. I think I'll stick to checking the Telegraph website, even if they do have their own political agenda.

Rochdale's Paul Rowen claimed 40p for a banana! How on earth can he justify this? These people have no shame

David Hayes rents a flat for a month costing £1,300 he then makes a claim for food, cleaning, maintainance and repairs now if you rent a property i thought the maintenance and repairs were all in??? also he gets a salary but claims for food? The cleaning bill makes me laugh also is he an invalid or just bone idle everyone else has to clean their own homes why should he be different??
JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT MPS ARE JUST NOTHING MORE THAN LEECHES ON TAXPAYERS, GET RID OF THE LOT OF THEM!!!!!!!!!

I actually think David Heyes is one of the better ones. When you rent a flat in a block you have to make regular maintainance payments for upkeeping the communal areas, roofing, guttering etc. I think they are genuine claims.

As for the food claims David Heyes claimed £1401.47 in 07/08 and £991.75 in 06/07.

Total £2393.23 for 2 years.

In contrast his neighbouring MP Andrew Gwynne claimed a staggering £4800 in 07/08 and was listed in the Telegraph as one of the 32 out of 646 MPs to claim the maximum. In 06/07 he claimed £4282 for food.

Total £9082 in total for 2 years
Figure that one out.

It shows how little respect they have for the public, while claiming for so many minor things which they could so easily pay for themselves. It is no longer a thought of how best I can serve the people who trusted me, but how much I can squeeze out of them.
