Laws paid £40,000 to his landlord and lover James Lundie for renting accommodation through him in London. Laws needed to do this because his home is in Yeovil in Somerset.

If he hadn't had sex with Lundie it would have been within the rules, apparently.

So if you are an MP you are not allowed to have sex with your landlord or the landlady whose B&B it is you are staying at, or it would cost you? Where is the logic of that, I wonder. But then logic is not this nation's strong suit.

Crazy rules, which no one thinks to revise, and which brings the law into general contempt generally. A dangerous state of affairs, I would have thought, but our political classes are too thick to see this or if they are, too cowardly to say or do anything.

If you are a London MP then you aren't entitled to claim for your accommodation because you already live in London, which is fair enough.

Why doesn't the government provide accommodation for these out-of-town MPs then?

The Japanese do this for their MPs so why can't we?

So he goes because the British political establishment is full of gutless little wimps afraid of envious little sheeple baaing over MPs' expenses claims.

These sheeple will soon forget what they are baaing about and start baaing about something else. It is well-known that sheeple have the memory of goldfish, but our political classes are afraid even of goldfish, as well as of slut and slapper verminous single mums breeding the next generation of vermin.

How about MPs' accommodation near the House courtesy of the taxpayer for out-of-town MPs then ? This seems obvious to me.

Are they really that gutless and thick they can't even organise a piss-up in a brewery?

If this is the case they shouldn't be running the country then, should they?
