There is a dramatisation of the MP's expenses to be screened tonight with Nigel Pearson staring

So its Dave from drop the Dead Donkey along with a great cast playing the facts for laughs

If someone invented it as a comedy you would say it was too far fetched

Look for the download

The trailers look hilarious but true

Mick Martin wants to deport the American who wants to investigate their expenses

It was brilliant !



I don't know why it was only an hour long and on BBC4 - it would have made a great series on BBC1



Well worth a watch

I agree it was brilliant. My MP Kitty Ussher was on complaining she couldn't live with an artex ceiling bless her. Out of an income of £63000 and £400 a month for food you would think that she could have paid herself to get rid of it if it was upsetting her so much. All parties have been caught with their fingers in the till who could even trust them again. The journalist who exposed the whole thing should be given a medal or it would still be going on.
