I agree that if any politicians are in it for personal financial gain, we are all better off without them.<br /><br />Alison - No but I can guess.Glyn Davieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17344589217554138315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-4678899643088453542009-07-12T16:53:58.741+01:002009-07-12T16:53:58.741+01:00Did you see the lorry that won first prize in Llanidloes carnival yesterday?

If some MPs don&#39;t like it, there are plenty of Brits who would love their job and would love to replace them at the polls. So go on yer &#39;Furious MPs&quot;, &quot;quit over new expenses blitz&quot;. <br /><br />If u guys think you should still get second home allowance without submitting basic paperwork - then by all means quit. <br /><br />And what is wrong with an MP writing &#39;That the amount claimed is accurate&#39;. <br /><br />People claiming benefits have to sign that the informatino they give is accurate. <br /><br />Why should MPs be above mere mortals? It is tax payers money that they are claiming after all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
