Tim Yeo: Claimed for pink laptop on MPs' expenses

Tim Yeo: Claimed for pink laptop on MPs' expenses

A former Conservative minister used his MPs' expenses to pay for a pink laptop computer from John Lewis in the weeks leading up to Christmas.





Regarding his pink laptop the MP said: "A laptop is a laptop whatever colour it is. This is a trivial point."

Is he seriously claiming that the pink laptop was for his own use on Parliamentary business? I suspect that it was a Christmas present for a girl or woman and that it is not a trivial point to bill the taxpayers for a personal gift!
