MPs NEED TO SHOW A BIT OF HUMILITY AND REALITY

Sir Ian Kennedy

Furious MPs are plotting to scrap Parliament's expenses watchdog only weeks after its launch.
They are angry at the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority's strict demands that they submit receipts with every claim they make.  Now MPs are threatening to veto Ipsa's budget or even repeal the Act of Parliament which set it up.

It's time these bastards showed some humility and reality.  They are still in the DOGHOUSE as far as the public are concerned.  They don't like have to have receipts for every claim.  FUCK ME, do you know any company where you are able to make an expenses claim without HAVING RECEIPTS?  They also claim they have to pay the money out before it is reimbursed.  Well, WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD THAT THE REST OF US ARE IN!

Well said DL. Don't listen to a recording of radio5live yesterday morning, you'll burst a blood vessel. Two of them bleating - was so pathetic.

As you will have seen from my posts on IPSA I am not impressed. Reality does not seem to be a requirement. Take a stand here, Cameron, or you will blow it...

Rosie, these arseholes seem to think they are our Lords and Rulers. Well maybe they are, but you know what I mean! Maybe it's that the Scots don't have the same deference to the Monarchy and the institution of the Westminster Parliament. Well you might have for the Queen because I know that you are connected in some way to the forces and they have it force fed until it is second nature, in my estimation.

Greekers, What I don't understand if why it takes a staff of 80 and the fantastic sums of money involved, which are out of all reality to look after 650 MPs. Either they are tremendously inefficient because normally an accounts dept. of ten could do the same work or the MPs are fiddling like fuck. Why doesn't that dwarf in the big chair with the robe do something about it? That's the dwarf with the robe not the chair.
