I will check what our local MP has claimed before voting for her again - she is a good MP, and if she hasn't made outrageous claims then I would be *more* likely to vote for her, as those who have acted responsibly should be recognised for that.

Hopefully she has not claimed for groceries. The thing which disgusts me most of all in this affair is that MPs can claim £400 a month for food while pensioners etc have to manage on a fraction of that.
