Cost Of Living Crisis.

[gulliver1]

Senior MPs are claiming thousands of pounds of tax payers money to pay their gas and electricity and water bills. Which is permitted under the
Parliamentary expenses system. ...Sod you plebs.

//Nine Cabinet ministers, including the Defence Secretary, Foreign Secretary and Home Secretary, have submitted claims this year as rising gas and electricity prices have squeezed the budgets of millions of households.

Latest figures from IPSA, which handles MPs’ expenses claims, shows that 14 members of Sir Keir Starmer’s shadow Cabinet also claimed for energy bills for 2022.//

not so, many are getting the winter fuel allowance, plus more money on top of that, plus the 400 pounds that is spread over six months, i got mine paid into my bank yesterday. Its not ALL doom and gloom, many will struggle though i concede that point.

Disgusting!

what is disgusting.

That's for their second homes, not for their main residence which should be in their constituency.
Many plebs who work away from home for long periods get their expenses paid, too.

So these MPS are getting the Tax payer to foot the bills for their Constituency homes and their London homes which is allowed under the Parliamentary rules.

Do all second home owners get an energy grant ?

Read the link I posted, gulliver. //They can only claim for accommodation and bills at one home.//

As I said, gulliver, it's for their second homes. You seem incapable of understanding what is actually written, preferring to interpret everything to match your mistaken beliefs.
