MP Expenses

Green Book - Members' Allowances (edited by Michael Martin - Gorbels Mick)

Michael Martin, MP, Speaker of the British House of Commons, did a wonderful job of ensuring the expenses of MPs were eventually published. And spending £150,000 of public money attempting to keep the information away from public scrutiny. Pathetic, but within the rules (presumably).



Inevitably predictable

This may be legal and within the rules,
but is morally indefensible
to use public money
in such a fashion.
