Tory Transparency Form Not Good Enough

Why not list every item? Businesses don’t put in VAT returns missing receipts for items under £250. There is a catch all “other” space on the new Tory “Right to Know” form. Guido wants to know which MPs have been claiming for food (up to £40 a day) while children in state schools are allocated 50p.

Ben Wallace MP was able to itemise all his expenses. The Hain excuse of being “too busy” is not good enough. Why should taxpayers have to account for every penny of income and expense yet MPs be taken on trust?

Ben Wallace MP, Tory shadow spokesman for Scotland, says

“Scotland’s biggest Labour donor is in receipt of millions of pounds of Labour-controlled government funds. It’s back to the old Labour days: it’s not what you know, it’s who you know.”
