Three line whips and nine bob notes

You have to admire the brass neck of our political classes after the latest revelations in the great expenses rip-off.

Caught with their snouts so deep in the taxpayer funded trough they must be using a snorkel to breath (£5.99 - receipt attached) with claims that give spurious a bad name do we get any hint of contrition, shame or perhaps even a glimmer of an apology?

Don't be silly, this is MPs we are talking about. Their first reaction is puff out their chests in apoplexic indignation at any suggestion they have done anything wrong followed by spending even more taxpayer's cash by calling in the police to find out who grassed them up.
