Roz, do you really believe two people living together as a couple are not going to have financial agreements regarding housing and food bills for example?

Last year his partner claimed against her own second home allowance about ?350 a month for food, how many was she eating for?

Apparently he is the only MP in South London that claimed the full ?250 petty cash on a regular basis, a total of ?12,000 for which he provided no reciepts or records of how it was spent.

How as an MP are his tax affairs so complicated he needs taxpayers to pay his accountant's fee?

If the amounts are insignificant why did he bother to claim them, why don't you offer to pay the sums involved?

Last year Jim was subject to allegations of missusing taxpayers money by using his Communications Allowance to canvass residents not in his ward?

In the middle of a credit crunch where millions have lost their jobs or put on shorter hours he voted a for a motion that would increase his annual London Allowance from ?2,800 to ?7,500.

Without knowing what ?12,000 was claimed for, some have argued he has not claimed for anything that he is not entitled to. Following their logic they would see nothing wrong with taxpayers funding an MP's moat being cleaned or providing an MP's ducks with a floating house.
