Rent Swapping Labour MP: I Had No Idea Who Riordan Was
One of the many rent-swappers revealed last month was Labour MP Linda Riordan. She claimed £1,473-a-month from the taxpayer to rent a London flat in spite of the fact that she rented her own London property to parliamentary colleague Iain McKenzie. At the time McKenzie claimed that he had no idea that his landlady was a Labour MP, absolving himself of all responsibility and ending the arrangement, apparently, as soon as he found out.
However, documents released by IPSA last night show that the payment for McKenzie’s rent was not to a holding company or estate agent like many of his colleagues, but instead straight to the landlord: Linda Riordan. So did McKenzie mislead us with his previous statement?
McKenzie has now admitted to Guido that he saw Riordan’s name on the lease document, but, and it’s a very big but, he didn’t realise his landlord was an MP because he had never heard of Linda Riordan before in his life:
“Payment was direct by IPSA, they advised they deal direct with Estate agent, the reason I used them. I signed the lease document, on it was landlord Linda – no indication of her employment. As I was only elected three months I did not connect the name, truth is I still do not know all MPs.”
Guido is sceptical, though in truth he’d never heard of her before all this either…
It is entirely wrong I should get of my ass and do something to help a SAS soldier
You mean he should receive special treatment? are not all meant to be equal under the law?
Besides, did he not plead guilty and admitted having live ammo on him?
And who have you ‘shot’ recently with your ‘weapon’?
I rented a bit of room once, but AHEM!, it wos for a roof over my ‘ed, in that Ladndahn, but he wos alright about it, never bled I did, from my ‘arris, and he gave me good brekfast – now you could not complain after a good feeding, ey?
And I met them buggers in Milano again, nice it was,
And the modern song exposed, helped by them, Milarno, strange place at these times,
Puts solar cells and windmills in the proper modern aspect, or are we going to continue to hollow our Earth, and ignore what comes from space to us, with pathetic earthling nimbyism? We infest this land, put up with the structures, slit your throat if you can’t accept it. We will be better for it.
six bill and increasing. Get it nimbys?
Bulid as much windmills as you can, fuck special scientific places or National Trust, we are too far gone, if you want us to carry on.
You should have some sympathy being also retarded
He should be released immediately on one condition !
He takes up position on a roof top opposite Westminster a picks off every one of the thieving fuckers as they exit the building
If only…..
Well said Sir, I’d carry his ammo box and spot for him.
politicians exist to provide drama.
they supply the bitchiness of eastenders.
the country has got bored.
however they are a messenger.
kill the message.
not the messenger.
He did plead guilty because he risked being jailed for several more years so his lack of faith in British justice was not unfounded.
Equal under the law? An SAS trooper in possession of a gun?!! Whatever next?
A politician with someone else’s money?
It could be true. He never tried to hide who his landlord is.
The problem comes when they ends up paying to a company based in tax heaven or refuse to name their landlord. For some reason even Nick Clegg doesn’t want to disclose his landlord, even though rent he charges is small compared to others.
To be honest, I think I’m on the verge of not caring. I just wish they would change the system and stop being able to claim rent, utility bills and council tax at the expense of the taxpayer. I have to make my f*cking wages stretch to cover all that sh*t so why can’t they. They certainly get a better salary than I do and seemingly do a more pointless job.
Problem is, they work from two places. Issue is how much is fair. Other issues are
1) other jobs some of them have
2) salary as its almost 3 times as much as average salary.
Tax heaven. where?
On the. Road to. Hell.

read it you mongrels work it out.
most dont know who ed miliband is….
please see 6 below – all is well!
sorry – can’t count either – see 10 below instead
whose ed megaband anyway?
Leo McClucksky’s I think.
Who?
There is always the possibility he thought Linda Riordan was not MP Linda Riordan, but a completely different person, could you tell from just a name with no pre-fix or suffix a name is the same as the person you know. I know without meeting i could not and an agent might have been the initial contact and he never met the land lord.
It is pretty stupid as a land search would have told him the truth.
The lease has the name and address of the owner on it by law.
Stinks!
AH(C)
Oh, come on, how do you think he found out about the property, really?
Creator do i wish people would comment on the post and not random crap, hint hint Dominic Grieve
You’re a Labour MP? So am I,what are the chances of that happening in a city with six million people in it eh?
Indeed it just beggars belief
i hadn’t heard of her either
Who is this megaband chap?
Is he related to Milishambles?
i’ve been moderated so i must be serious
WTF ! Did he get Tessa Jowell to read the lease documents before hand ? That would explain why they remained completely ignorant of the fucking contents. Fucks sake !!!!
UK MUSLIMS COST UK TAXPAYERS A STAGGERING £13+ BILLION A YEAR! http://cpnagasaki.wordpress.com/2012/11/20/uk-britain-sinking-under-weight-of-welfare-costs-while-unproductive-muslims-cost-a-staggering-13-billion-a-year/ …
To put it into context £1 billion is equivalent to £50 tax for the average taxpayer. So that’s £650 each you suckers.
Not fair to say Muzzies are ‘unproductive’. They reproduce like priapic fucking rats.
No Westernised country can sustain it’s own culture and quality of life once the religion of piss’s population hits 30%.
France is an interesting experiment right now, a double whammy of giving socialism another go and throwing itself into dhimmitude.
Not altogether a bad thing. I encourage them to come to Portsmouth, where my boys make millions from housing them, the LibDems and I get donations and most importantly,as a result, most of them vote for me. Boaz.
port.s.mouth.
funny place that.
maybe it is because it is navel……..gazing.
longtime since portmouth achieved anything. if ever.
you would think these dozy f*ckers would check, check again and check for 3rd time to make sure this sort of thing doesnt bite em on the arse. That they are incapable of watching their backs in an intellegent way suggests they are not fit for their jobs.
Never heard of her either.
I wish someone would post the traffic situation in London
All fucked up.

Thanks. Anyone know the time?

It is time to build them a big block of flats, kitted out just like student accommodation.
There will be plenty of room for them in my new garden, the Mrs Qs can help out and I will give religious teachings.

Sunderland sends three MPS to Westminster,Hodgson who had form in the last Parliament for claiming up to 400 pounds a month for food,when you see her money well spent,Elliot and Phillipson.Following the publication of those MPS renting flats in London Hodgson and Elliott redacted Phillipson didnt declared all in transpaent way.Clearly Hodgson and Elliot have something to hide come on Guido lets know the details or anyone with info,given Phillipsons declaration they cannot use the security defence
We gave you child tax credits, now fuck off!

Don’t understand what the problem is. If she lived in her property instead of renting it out she would not be able to claim second-home expenses, since mortgage interest is no longer allowable. Why shouldn’t she get her second home paid for like all the other non-London MPs? (I don’t really have to rehearse the reasons why my MP needs somewhere in London to live, do I?)
Pleb’s big block of flats may be a good idea, but then what would she do with the property she owns, since according to you lot she shouldn’t rent it out? Leave it empty?
Some people on this thread are suggesting that lies have been told and criminal offences committed. Neither appears to be the case. Be careful – you indulge your self-righteousness at your peril – remember McAlpine!

Is that you? #MrB
Thank you John. It would be there if they wanted it. If they already have a place then they wouldn’t need it. Applies to bigwigs like the Speaker too.
We’re all in it together aren’t we Mr Cameron?

Er………no.
She could sell the property she owns. Simple. Any gain on sale goes to Harv.
No, ‘onest guv’nor, never ‘erd of her in me life. Rent Rats of the Left United again!!!

Is this dispute of Rent anything to do with Rent Boys? If so, is Mr Laws being dragged in to it?
MacKenzie is my local MP.
He proves the theory that you can stick a red rosette on a donkey and get elected in Inverclyde
He’s as bright as a 2 watt bulb with the oratory skills of a carpet.
He promised 100 new jobs in 100 days if elected as MP – one hundred weeks later he’s delivered fuck all.
He employs his wife I hear too, as a researcher.
