A close friend of the prime minister who lives with her husband in a £1.5m house in London has claimed £230,000 in expenses by saying a flat in Glasgow is her main home.
Forgive my ignorance but I have never heard of her before until now. So, her input into politics is that she is a friend of Gordon Brown. And somehow this entitles her to claim £230,000 out of the public purse for expenses for her main home which is not her main home at all!
"On Friday Goudie acknowledged she did not spend much of her time in the Glasgow flat, although she was there “frequently”. She said she needed a “main residence” in Scotland because it was the base of her non-parliamentary activities".
As I understand it, expenses are for parliamentary activities and not for non-parliamentary activities whatever they may be.
This is a clear case of obtaining money by deception which is a criminal offence.
I trust that this meets the test of An Inspector Calls?
