According to this Mornings papers Tony McNulty has been claiming housing allowance for his parents home 8 miles from his family home. By all accounts this is within the rules. But was it within the spirit of the rules. I can't see that anyone would say that it was.
There are two points here.
The first is the inescapable view that MP's allowances is a joke. It should be brought in line with that of the private sector, if it is not the repute of all politicians is brought into question and democracy suffers.
The second point is that just as the Major government found, when the rot sets in, it cannot be turned. LA is sure that there are MP's on all sides of the House pushing the system to the extreme for personal gain. They are however not all part of a crumbling government. A predatory media are like Lions, they will pick off the lame and weak. This government is both of those, over the coming weeks we should expect similar headlines.
Drip, drip drip.
LA.

McNulty removed from reality
Lord Allelsey has pondered and fumed for 24 hours, sometimes to put thought down in the heat of the moment is wrong.
However Mcnulty the Minister for arrogance and stupidity has made Allesley explode.
On an interview on TV news on Friday evening, a day when it became apparent that Britain (England Technically) had become riddled with knife crime, when asked what the Government was doing about it, he had the audacity to say , over the last year the government had made several "announcements" on the subject. What does this imbecile believe. If the Government says something is bad we will all stop doing it, if it says its good we will all follow suit. All a Government has to do apparently is speak and we shall obey, the world will fall into line. Have these people really become this egotistical in the last 11 years.
This fool needs to understand we have a Britain where for huge sections of our population aspiration has been removed, normal and sensible aspiration that is. The idea of a career,a job, a better community, its gone. Hand out Britain has led to the only aspiration for some being to join a gang, to be a thug.For others to get 6 pints of Stella, or more channels on Sky. to achieve these goals sit at home and wait for the cheque to arrive.
Lord Allesley is despairing.
