Thread Name: BS: Maria Miller: UK politics.
Subject: RE: BS: Maria Miller: UK politics.
How many people who have had their benefits reduced by the "Bedroom Tax" did it take to let Maria Miller claim over £98,000 to keep her parents living in luxury in Wimbledon.
Within the rules or not, its immoral and she should stand down as an MP and let the people of Basingstoke elect an honest person to represent them. Her article in the Basingstoke Gazette simply shows her arrogance and in no way mitigates her behaviour. Her predecessor, Andrew Hunter, was no better as he lived rent free for many years in a house owned by the local Lord yet still claimed for expenses for a second home.
