Mark Connolly Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Strange considering his principled stance, but that news report doesn't have any mention of how many times he has attempted to actually do anything about the problem... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible to think that MP's whose constituencies are hundreds of miles from Westminster have greater expenses than those whose constituencies are a county away. I'm shocked. Flabbergasted even. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 This one is particularly unfortunate.Tbf he covers a constituency that is massive, has mainland and islands and population centres hours apart and tries to maintain staff to cover it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that, but he's her SNP MP so it looks a bit daft whining about Patel's expenses when he's claiming £50,000 more, however justifiably. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BawWatchin Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Easy for those expenses to get out of control when you need to fork out for travel back and forth over 400 miles. Only solution is independence imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
