MPs' Expenses and the next
General Election
|
|
We've started work on a page dedicated
to MPs' expenses.
It may seem a little late in the day to start,
but a general election approaches and we may be able to
offer some useful comment or information. Our approach will
not be party political but will focus on the issues of integrity,
judgement and the general fitness of potential candidates
to be an MP.

theatre & cinema. Worth the journey. This Lancaster
based theatre has acquired a well-deserved reputation for
innovation and entertainment. We're fans of the summer outdoor
productions in Williamson Park and the family Christmas
show is particularly popular. Lots of mainstream and independent
movie screenings.

Our site of the month is the
House of Commons
|
|
The
House of Commons introduction doesn't mention the MPs'
expenses scandal, but the expense claims of any particular
MP can be viewed and downloaded via
Allowances by MP. This pages provides a list of all
MPs with links to some of their expense claims. At the time
of writing the Metropolitan Police Service are apparently
investigating a small number of MPs for possible fraud.
