The Lib Dem leader has urged his fellow party leaders to back his plans for reforming MPs' second-homes allowances.
Nick Clegg's proposals would see the allowance replaced with expenses for only basic utility bills, council tax and either rent or mortgage interest.
MPs get over £60,000 basic salary per year. They are not poor enough to expect the taxpayer to pay for their utility bills. I have to pay mine out of my £60 per week Jobseekers Allowance.
