Paul Flynn on trust

From the expenses fiddling MP's site.
The  'Big Questions'  show from Bristol this morning kindly gave me a chance to air some of my recipe for restoring trust. Two years ago the expenses scandal dragged faith in politicians down to rock bottom. Now it's worse. It's subteranean. I was asked to read the prayer that is said every day in parliament. If everyone believed this there would be no scandals.

It will take many years to rebuild trust in politics. All MPs are judged by many to be lying thieves. The details are forgotten but the mud still sticks. The sins of predecessors are visited on present MPs. 
Right, rather than list all his many sins I shall just point out that this 64 grand a year wage earning MP, claims all his utility bills off of you.

In fact he only stopped claiming his tv license when he got to 75 and was able to get it for free, thats free as in not claiming it back on expenses.

Sins of the predecessors, hardly. Whilst the slug Flynn infests his high office the expenses fiddling will carry on.

Newport deserves better.

Oh, and lastly a big thank you for Mish Masher who made me laugh like a loon with the picture of Paul Flynn as a slug.
