The House of Commons Standards Committee has revealed that the standards of sitting MPs’ from all parties are doubling every year – with a marked acceleration in the rate of MPs’ double standards since the coalition came to power.
The unsurprising revelations come not long after it was revealed that 340 MPs are claiming expenses from the taxpayer for their energy bills to heat second homes – with one claiming £5,822.
Experts say double standards have now become the norm in the UK for most people in public life – but are especially noticeable in politicians, journalists and senior banking executives.

All the little piggies with their noses firmly welded to the trough!
When the MP expenses scandal hit the headlines a few years back, I was speaking to a US journalist who was telling me that in the US they have a block of flats that their politicians stay in and they pay service charges, which include heating and lighting costs. After all you would incur those costs wherever you live. I don’t know why we don’t do something like that here. I mean it’s fair enough to have choice over your first home but not your job related second home which they can sell on for a profit

It’s time the armed forces stood up for it’s own citizens who are being exploited and robbed by a corrupt lying government, time for a military coup here.
