(Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.

Tory sleaze - keep it in the family
The mafia tend to keep it in the family to exclude from outsiders what naughtiness they are up to. So too with the Tory Mafia.
Seems that quite a few MPs are on this gravy train, not just tories. It is a scandal that they can claim so much money for themselves and fill their pockets to the brim whilst the less fortunate are having to scrimp and save, some on the streets homeless and all the time your caouncil tax goes up and up along with all the new forms of taxation which are constantly being invented.
It is no wonder that the government are introducing new stealth taxes hand over fist, it is because they have to find a way to pay for these leeches.
Also I am going to make a prediction: If this subject makes it into the news in a big way, the government will announce a crackdown on "benefit cheats" by way of retaliation.
It happens this way every time some sort of government sleaze is uncovered.
This isnn't just limited to the Tories. MP's of ALL Parties are claiming expenses to employ their families in non jobs, it has been a long running scam.
It was hoped that the FOI act would shame them into cleaning up their act. Their response was to opt out of the FOI act.
