MP Expense U-Turn No 2

Well, well, what a surprise.

"SWEEPING reforms to clean up MPs' expenses will be BINNED by the man brought in to police new rules.
Prof Sir Ian Kennedy is ready to tear up the proposals just THREE DAYS after they were unveiled".

There was a very simple way of dealing with the expenses scandal.
Every MP that had abused the system should have been forced to pay back every penny.

But that would have been too easy.
The government needed a sideshow to keep the electorate occupied while they continue the Common Purpose agenda.
And that's exactly what we got, a sideshow followed by a whitewash.

The main offenders like Jacqui Smith have not only escaped justice but got to keep the cash as well.
At the same time others have been asked to pay back paltry sums, no doubt in an effort to appease the electorate.

It's the same old same old from a bunch of politicians who no longer have the interests of the people or even the country at heart.
They have had their noses stuck firmly in the trough for far too long.
Greed and personal ambition are clearly the main priority for the vast majority.
Our country is being run by a bunch of Arther Dayley's, is it any wonder we're in a mess?
