Too many of the UK’s political elite still don’t get it.
I avoid writing about Members of Parliament and their gaming of expenses. These days I try to avoid thinking about MPs at al all. I just get angry. I turn them off when ever they come on TV.
A new low point was reached this week. Sir Thomas Legg has been looking at MPs expenses and has placed a cap on some of the more outrageous excesses.
For example he has placed limits of £1,000 a year for gardening and £2,000 a year for cleaning. Any MP who has claimed over this amount is being asked to repay the difference. They are not amused.
