MP's Expenses: "Mistakes"

Does the pig remind anyone else of a certain unelected prime minister?

What is really taking the piss with this expenses bullshit is the "mistakes" that all of the MP's are making. The one that is really making me laugh is Elliot Fucking Morley... Mr Morley was claiming £800 a month for mortgage payments for his house in Scunthorpe. The "mistake" in this instance is that the mortgage was fully repaid in March 2006?!
Claiming a mistake of £16,000?!

If anyone else had mistakenly swindled their employer out of £16,000 he would be fired on the spot for being an incompetent fucking idiot!!

Anything regarding Phil Woolas just pisses me off, claiming for £210.31 of reciepts which include women's shoes, bibs and nail polish. AND THEN his defense is that "well I could have claimed £400 but I didn't". How does that make his claim just or right? It doesn't, end of. Even if the women's shoes were for him, I still don't see how dressing up as a fugly woman is imperitive to his job at home or in his constituency.

At the end of the day, if anyone who was not an MP 'mistakenly' claimed THOUSANDS of £££s from their employer they would be forced to pay it back and have their employment swiftly terminated.
