I think every person running for government, or as an MP should do some 'on the job training' :) eg live in the poorest area of their consituency, in the poorest housing, with the lowest income...for a month, and in that time run the minefield of the benefits/ council tax/ local facilities, employment system, health system etc and also from the position of someone in an 'average job on an average wage' trying to meet the mortgage payments etc :)

i think the government are so used to us saying nothing,so they get away with it.its only when the papers get wind of it then we all say .OMG .
imigration is a huge concern.i was never brought up racist at all [thank god]that in case someone reads this wrong....but we cant keep doing it.we need work for our own .
and those who wont work we need to come down harder.
its not fair on those who cant work.
also kids who have kids are handed alot on a plate.they think its the right way by having loads a kids.and not working.there has to be an alternative.someway we can help them to provide better for themselves.it has to start somewhere.

No second home allowance if the MP lives within reasonable daily travelling distance to House of Commons, allowance if needed for hotel stay rather than second home. No allowance towards upkeep or fixtures and fittings for said home ( except possibly no council tax to be paid on second home if it is needed ) , a very basic (if any) expenses budget to cover meals when away from home.
