IPSA Boss Says Piggy MPs Deserve Our Trust Again
A laughable interview on the Today programme this morning by Sir Ian Kennedy, the head of IPSA and the man in charge of a review of MPs’ pay. Kennedy says it is time to trust MPs again on expenses:
“Two and a half years ago Parliament was mired in controversy about expenses scandal and looks what’s happened in those two and a half years: an independent body has been created, we’ve addressed business costs, we’ve addressed expenses, we’ve got a good system in place which works. What we’ve got to do is say, look, 2009 is not back with us. MPs are not in a situation where they’re not to be trusted and that there’s no system in place. Quite the opposite, there’s a new system and it’s quite unfair to say that MPs are not to be trusted.”
He must have forgotten all about Stephen Dorrell, Denis MacShane, Margaret Moran, Linda Riordan, Meg Munn, Andy Burnham, Chris Bryant, Helen Grant, Bill Cash, John Whittingdale, Peter Luff, Jessica Lee, David Amess, Kevin Barron and Don Foster. And that’s just during the last month…
First
Mr Osborne stopped claiming for the mortgage before the election, so can keep all of the profit.

George Osborne made a huge profit of £450,000 by selling his second home which was part paid for by the taxpayer, it was claimed today.

Will he pay this time?
Four posts about the same old shit in 12 minutes, 3:25, 3:26, 3:28, and 3:37. Are you trying to bore everyone to death, you obsessive loon?
Archer Karcher, it all relates to expense claim by MPs. If Osborne wants to set an example, he should pay up. If MPs want to set an example they should look into what Osborne did / doing.
Louise!
Like I said you are a repetitive bore, you posted this copy and paste shit multiple times on the last thread too. Start your own blog if you feel so strongly about Louise Osborne, don’t bore everyone here with the same stuff, over and over again, like a tourettes loon.
You are Chucky Yomomma and I claim my £1000 bespoke suit.
Forget Osborne, look at all the Liebour thieves in the list above – come clean!
Would Sir Ian like to buy some magic beads or very high yielding shares in Madoff Inc?
(Never give a sucker an even break).
Sir Ian has the support of all MP’s including me. He is doing a fine job and was an inspired appointment by the Grand Master. Boaz.
The interview was more than laughable; it had me shouting at the radio “The silly old sod’s gone native”.
They really are all in this together, aren’t they?
Yep. Either that, or Kennedy must be doing some very dangerous and illegal mind-altering shit.
Got extra bills to pay this month? Do what I did. I borrowed £500 billion from Wonga which you’ll all be paying back for the next 89 years.
Message for Sir Ian…..you talk complete bollocks sir.
The trouble is that Kennedy is part of the problem he is cowed by the bullying nature of MPS exemplified by McShame what we need is someone who will act on the abuses which Guido highlights.The idea that the publci trust MPS with expenses wll be treated with risible laughter and disbelief,if it wasnt for blogs like this and a free press which is about to be neutered they would still be getting away with the excesses of 2009 and Chaytonr,Morley,Devine and Ilsley would still be still be members of parliament instead of being ex cons dont get me started on McShame or Moran.
What about George Entwhistle , wouldn’t he make a good ipsa boss?
George Entwhistles spokesman says he never applied for the job and if he did hes forgotten and if you can excuse him he wants to close the door!!!
I only found out this morning that my name is George. Now, some of you have been asking why I never tried to find out what my name is all these years. But you must understand that, as DG, I simply don’t have the time to go into all the details.
Didn’t your mother write your name on the label inside your jacket? Try reading it! You can read, can’t you?
That would have shown excessive curiosity, which I was trying to avoid.
+1
Kennedy was hand picked to be the looters apologist and enabler. While people like him are anywhere near the problem of corrupt MP’s. Nothing will change.
2009 never went away
I heard the interview and he was bullish about the attitude to MP’s and how it’s all rosy in the expenses garden now.
He lost his rag as well, never a good sign.
The only reason he was on Today this morning was to shout down the interviewer and to try to justify all the cock-ups he has made so far – and to set us up for more and more and….
Makes a change – usually on Toady (not that I listen to it any more) the interviewer shouts down the interviewee.
I think these fuckers think that we believe them. THIEVING C*NTS
Shame!! certain people have very short memories
The bloke is a Cock !
I wonder who’s apartment or house he rents ?
I’ve made sure no one finds out. Toodle pip!
Do we really look so gormless Sir Ian?
Yes!
There are none so blind as an IPSA boss.
“……it’s quite unfair to say that MPs are not to be trusted.”
absolute horse shit bollocks mate, you want to get out more and see what is happening
So Basically,we can trust MP’s again not because they are decent folk but because there are systems in place to prevent them nicking our money?
Or put another way,
You can trust Ahmed the child rapist because I’ve fitted your teenage daughter with iron knickers.
Peadoes in the B B C and profiteering pillocks in the H O C
How much are the troughers paying him to say that?
Bercow’s bitch earns £100,000 pa !!!
At five quid a go–she’s a busy girl!
As much as that? My word!
I heard you got change from a fiver!
About £4.95.
She can snort and blow at the same time allegedly.
No expense issues? Have I turned over two pages at once?
Ian Keneddy needs sacking for such a foolish idiotic remark. Trouble is that nearly all politicians and idiot Kennedy think that the Public are fair game when it comes to stealing our taxes, a very rude awakening is coming to them, that is for sure.
I think he’s been hitting some of the same stuff CHARLEY Kennedy used to hit, and pretty hard, at that, by the sound of that fatuous remark!
Hey, don’t forget about me, old “Chap”– I used to put it away by the bucketful too! Even killed a girl as a result!

How are you doing you old bridger wrecker?
The Forces of Parliament are clearly at work to reverse the Broon-induced expenses bureacracy and this is just the latest manouvre. The scheming encompasses all concerned with only a few genuine “honourable” members opposed. Basically they all regard Broon’s interventions as a tiresome over-reaction, designed to throw a bone to the slavering masses, which could and will be reversed in due course with a full return to business as usual.
The truth is – they will succeed.
If he looks like a c*unt and sounds like a c*unt, then he must be a c*unt!
Someone asked for me?
Does he walk like one too? That’s the third test for a duck!
A member of the US congress earns far more than me which I don’t think is fair.
The fact his constituency is the size of a small country shouldn’t have anything to do with it.
MPs. Because you’re worth shit.
Yipeee! Finally I can stop pretending to be an ironing board and telling people my name is Oscar! I want to be an MP again! Bring me back, Ed! One nation!
Woop woop.
If this IPSA chap say’s it is ok to trust then I trust them.
I also think that Jimmy Savile was a good all round egg and a real snappy dresser
There must be a judge led enquiry.
I mean do me a favour where does this geez live in cloud cuckoo land? He’s definitely deaf in one eye and blind in the other ear. Trust and politicians are two words light-years apart!
If ever there is a real pressing need for a revolution against these para*sites, lee*ches & pim*ps the time is really now……
The sooner this stinking heap of excre*ment is dealt with & removed
for good the better !!
Who do we look to this time?. MPs change the rules to a form they can happily accommodate, without losing a bloody penny. MPs with the connivance of the body making the rules. They all must think we are total and absolute stupid c@nts. But how do we sort it, this time round the papers are a bit hamstrung – upset the MPs and get regulated to death.
“independent”? dont make laugh, he is about as independent as my arse is from me. The regime can always count on their legions of bought off lickspittles, court hangers on ready at the drop of a hat to cast off any scruples and do what is required of them. He is just another regime stooge brought in to cover up for the criminality and venal looting still going on. The Mr Kennedys of this world are the reason why such systemic corruption can exist and flourish, these crooks have a skill in surrounding themselves with his kind.
He’s an idiot. IPSA facto.
Dennis McShame says i applaud Sir Ians forgiving nature I have finally be absolved!
Maybe a jury ought to decide that.
Did anyone ask him if little Jonny B13 C0N wrote his script? Little Johnny would be very furious indeed if any of his shenanigans on all this reached the ears/eyes of the general public.
quis custodiet IPSA custoadies?
And that his own cosmetic department is costing us more than all the frauds said to have been found by these bozos.
Whatever happens the taxpayer loses more money and the non-productive parts of the state gets it.
quite right
What planet does this guy live on?
IPSA equla IPCC equals Whitewashes R Us.
Both outfits are fucking useless.
It is disgraceful.
What planet is he on?
Earth calling Ian Kennedy, come in…..!
I heard him also this morning – vacuous. Six million quid to get 650 people to fill in a form truthfully. ‘Nuff said frankly…….
If it looks like a wanker, and talks like a wanker, it probably is a wanker.
C’mon you guys, why do you think he was appointed and who did the appointing?
