We really have an MP called ‘Cardiff Central’…? I mean, I know there are some strange names in Wales but that seems particularly cruel on the part of the parents.
Yeah, yeah, thank you 🙂 Duly corrected.
Greg Mulholland’s Facebook states he had an ‘all clear’.
Likewise with “Harrogate and Knaresborough”! Wasn’t allowing MPs to job-share in ‘Real Women’?
Why doesn’t Clegg tell us about the repayment if any of Lord Rennard’s £41,000 second home claim?
Does he think the public has forgotten or is his opportunistic grandstanding just a diversionary tactic?
BTW, Didn’t Don Foster top the Telegraph’s list of squeaky-clean MPs…?
Ed Davey is a saint and Legg confirmed it – see http://www.edwarddavey.co.uk
