Reminds me of the Expenses scandal; 'because it was the right thing to do' doesn't quite cut it with me!

Yep just like that one who tried to claim for getting his moat cleaned.

He is a politician, mostly all liars and robbers, not all mind but a hell of a lot of them, remember the guy who claimed for his goldfish pond statue? and the MPs who avoid tax by paying into off shore accounts, the few guilty ones need to be imprisoned.

Keep it up ian,soon you will have the union of moat cleaners moaning
If they happened to strike,how are we supposed to keep our own moats clean

My Mrs would not want to clean it, I would have to throw her in to get the job done
You are treading on dodgy ground sir

I'm usually up for a political debate, but this thread is just effluent.

with regard to politicians, strange the similarity in the words effluent and affluent.
