On this note, I honestly believe if people like Sacha Baron Cohen, Peter Kay and Ricky Gervais ran the country, we wouldn't be having these issues. There probably wouldn't even be war. Also, one of the MPs is called Ed Balls, with a name like that, you really wouldn't want to draw even more attention to yourself... Mate, it's called strategy yeh.
Sometimes a half-truth can be more pernicious then a complete falsehood. The MP's shouldnt spacegoat their "confusion over expenses" on the speaker for the House of Commons. Fine, the speaker should resign, but his resignation is not tantamount to the regulation of MP's expenses. Taking advantage of a system, means one knowingly took the piss. If it exists and you have no qualms about milking it - then you will?! They shouldn't attempt to absolve themselves by shouting at the speaker or asking him for his resignation date as; a) it's not entirely his fault; and b) the fella looks like he might go into cardiac arrest at any minute.
That list just went on and on, disgraceful!
ReplyDeleteThey are clearly using the speaker as a scapegoat for all their wrong doings, looking to pass the buck now they have been caught with their preverbial pants down. Very fitting image!
Yet with this said, would I exploit a feeble system, knowing I could claim thousands. Yes, but not at the expense of funding to run my country.
It's horrendous. An MP's salary is exceedingly generous - if you decide to become an MP, you should pay for your own biscuits, vintage champagnes and duck islands.
ReplyDeleteThey shouldn't be using taxpayer's money as a company credit card! And if they bill the taxpayer, it should directly benefit us. Why should we pay for some husbands pornography stash or pay the rent for their toff of a son.
These people are hopeless, and cannot be trusted. I'm reluctant to vote in this general election, only reason I am is to make sure the BNP do not gain any more seats!
I agree with you, I PROBABLY would exploit a system, BUT, not if my profession was an MP.
Also - the pigs are cute and oinky, aren't they? Most of the MP's are fuggly-old fraudsters :)
ReplyDeleteI don't know I definetly give that Ed Balls a go, his name alone musters up an attraction to him, let alone his excessive expliotation of our countries money!
ReplyDeleteIn Ballsy's defence - he was probably bullied throughout boarding school and now he's claiming what (he thinks) society owes him, from years of abuse.
ReplyDeleteWhatta' scrotum.
