Default MP's credibility due to expenses

Yes they think its starting to drop due to them ripping us off, as they say "we are in it together " unless your an MP as you can milk the system for so much cash you would not even know there had been a recession.

To be honest if they are caught doing something like that they should be sacked on the spot for gross misconduct, not slapped on the wrist and appologise.

Think about the normal person, if we did something like that at our work then we would be adding to the unemployment stats.

I think MP's only have credibility in their own mind, everyone else thinks they are blatant thieves and con artists who are only doing the job to line their own pockets.

But they (often within the rules) rip the tax payer of for 100' of thousands of £,s - and yet other organisations rip the tax payer off (often within the rules) for 10,s of billions

I suppose it is, as, Joseph Stalin once (allegedly) remarked

A Single Death is a Tragedy; a Million Deaths is a Statistic

Most People just find the bigger picture too confusing/incomprehensible

Were all in it together.

Just to varying degrees.
