Aye. However, last time I checked, embezzlement was a criminal offence, so why has this guy still got a job? :shifty:

What makes me angry about this is the "we kept withing the rules" defence.

Not. the. point.

What irks me is that interview after interview that I have seen on tv, these pollies keep saying sorry but not about their own conduct. Rather "sorry that we worked in such a bad system". Again zero personal accountability by MP's. And the Speaker of the House is just a total embarrassment. It's just stuff up after stuff up with him. Totally out of touch. :damn:

Frankly, I think people should have seen the iceberg when MPs declared that they could create the rules regarding their own expenses :doh:

It's quite worrying when you consider this is only the tip of the iceberg.

There are many more like him out there :nope:

Hehe, well what do you know? :D

All of this crap my be within the rules, but it is surely not in the spirit of the rules, a point which none of these self serving gravy-boaters seems capable of grasping.

Still, have a laugh with the daily mash:
