12 piggies done 600+ to go

Oh Iris !! Iris Pig and Peter pig



Anti-gay MP Iris Robinson and husband tried to claim twice for same expenses bill

Northern Ireland MPs Iris Robinson and her husband Peter both tried to claim for the same £1,223 expenses bill on the same day.

Mrs Robinson, who once described homosexuality as an "abomination", was exposed in the latest round of expense receipts published by the Daily Telegraph.

The Democratic Unionist Party MPs have come under scrutiny for their financial affairs before, with a tabloid newspaper reporting last month that they claim almost £600,000 a year in salaries and expenses.

The double claim was rejected by officials, as was a claim for a total of £10,860 in mortgage interest payments made by the couple – covering five months – because they did not provide mortgage interest statements as proof. It was not clear whether the money was paid to them or if they eventually submitted evidence of the interest.

Between 2004 and 2008, the couple claimed a total of £159,208 on their east London flat, most of which went on mortgage interest repayments.They bought the flat in 2001 for £450,000.

They also claimed £30,525 for food between 2004 and 2008, reaching the £400 limit most months.

In response, Mr Robinson described the double claim for the £1,223 bill as “an innocent mistake”.

He said: “The two claim forms were prepared for the signature of my wife and myself by the same person. They are signed separately and then sent together in the one envelope. Anyone in the fees office would have been dealing with the claims together and inevitably would have noticed the innocent mistake. It is clear that this one duplicate entry over many years was an innocent error and happily was spotted.”

He added that the £100 per week claims for food were "not unreasonable", although he said none of the couple's children had spent "more than half a dozen nights in the apartment over the years”.

Mrs Robinson earns £63,291 for her position as an MP, £24,296 as an Assembly member and as chairwoman of its health and social services committee and £9,550 as a councillor for the Castlereagh borough in Northern Ireland.

Oh No!!! Piggy Speaker Martin


Speaker faces no confidence call

Michael Martin
The Speaker's supporters say he has long been the victim of snobbery.

A no confidence motion in House of Commons Speaker Michael Martin is to be tabled by a Conservative backbencher.

MP Douglas Carswell is to make the move following a furore over Mr Martin's handling of leaks of MPs' expenses.

Some MPs felt he was more concerned with attacking those who criticised him than responding to public anger.

Labour MP Gordon Prentice argued that the speaker was now "too compromised" by recent events and so should stand down immediately.

Thank god another Tory !! Hogg Pig


Tory MP Hogg to repay 'moat cost'

Douglas Hogg
Mr Hogg was one of several Tories whose claims were questioned

Conservative MP Douglas Hogg has agreed to repay £2,200 - the cost of clearing his moat at his country estate - amid the continuing row over MPs' expenses.

Mr Hogg maintained he had not claimed the money but agreed it had not been "positively excluded" from paperwork submitted to the Commons fees office.

"I believe that my claims fell clearly within the scope of the rules."

He is the latest in a string of Labour, Tory and Lib Dem MPs to pay back money after claims came to light.

Mr Hogg was irritated by the Telegraph's coverage of his own claims - which was included in a series of articles about how wealthy Conservatives had claimed towards the cost of maintaining large constituency homes.

Malik £66K , whew , Mr Malik Pig


The Telegraph also reports Justice Minister Mr Malik - who claimed the most expenses of all 646 MPs in 2007 - claimed a maximum of £66,827 allowances over three years for his second home in London.

It reports he claimed £2,500 for a cinema system, later reduced by half by the fees office.

He claimed £65 for a court summons for council tax non-payment but he repaid this on Thursday.

Mr Malik said the report's suggestion he paid only £100 a week in rent on his "main home" in his Dewsbury constituency was a "fabrication".

He said the house was where he spent most of his time so it was legitimate to claim for the second home in London.
