Have just looked at the 2007/2008 expenses and ?16,500 was paid to the Lewisham Labour Party for his part or shared use of a building as his Constituency Office.
The sum includes agreed office running costs, use of some office equipment and secretarial support with Constituency Advice Surgeries.
His communication costs are interesting, Jim's Stationary & Postage costs were almost half those of the other two Lewisham MP's.
His mobile phone bill normally about ?35 a month shot up to ?132.25 in June and ?132.67 in November, I guess he was abroad at those times.
Not sure why taxpayers were asked to pay ?275 to complete his tax return, wouldn't that be a personal matter unconnected with being a MP?
