Subject: RE: BS: UK/Ireland Public Anger
I must admit, I don't seem to have the anger others seem to have over the expenses business and while some may be way OTT, I'm not convinced it's all that bad. I think genuine mistakes can be made and, to be honest, I wouldn't have a clue as to what might be reasonable - I certainly would not expect my MP to spend his time in London in a bare shabby bedsit but I'm not sure where you would draw the line the other end.
Overall, the business has amused me. This does come down to what ETV has commented on above. To me, there is almost a sense of justice in seeing those who would watch our every move and keep all sorts of data on us being put through this.
