Downing Street has been forced to reveal details of the contract for cleaning Gordon Brown's flat after it was revealed he had made payments to his brother out of his expenses.

“It is All Within the Rules”
Who made the rules? MPs. Who benefits? MPs. Who decides how much they are paid? MPs. Who judges rule breakers? MPs. It is a fundamental legal principle, that you should not be a judge in your own case (“nemo debet esse iudex in propria causa”). MPs are always judging other MPs caught red handed, that is why despite huge amounts of money being embezzled, not a single MP has gone to jail.
If MPs are doing nothing wrong under the rules then the rules themselves are wrong and need changing.
