The ongoing saga…

The UK airwaves have been flying with arguments about MPs expenses; second home allowances, and Prime Minister Gordon Brown’s botched attempt to have it all sorted in a fortnight.


It seems, however, that our MP’s will not be subject to any changes in second home allowances. Of course, nothing in Northern Ireland passes without a political dig. The Conservatives and Unionists Euro candidate Jim Nicholson claimed this was a sop to Sinn Féin whose MPs of course take the expenses and second home allowances but not their seats.
