"A Conservative MP was ordered to repay £7,100 and apologise in writing today after a parliamentary investigation into her claims for second home allowances on a flat where her daughter was living.

Anne Main began claiming expenses on the flat she rented in St Albans shortly after becoming the city's MP in 2005, even though her family home was only 20 miles from the constituency in Beaconsfield"

"At least 15 MPs are each letting out a London home for more than £10,000 a year while renting another property on expenses, the BBC has found.

The MPs, of whom 13 are Conservatives and three are ministers, are claiming up to £22,920 a year for rent payments."

Oh, is that what you think?

Has anybody else said that?

Or is it just you?

 

[motorbiking]

And it’s not less than £2k

Good to see JohnD getting excited about politicians taxes again. He must be feeling better.

Nobody said it was ok.


It is perfectly reasonable to question why Motorbiking, Mottie, you and some others here have never ever commented on Tory bogus PPE contracts and dodgy VIP lane…..but are having a hissy fit over something which is by comparison minor.

Hypocrisy

 

[Notch7]

And it’s not less than £2k

That’s right Michelle Mone is £200m

 

[motorbiking]

Has she failed to declare her capital gains like Angela rayner?

 

[Andydevon]

Oh look over there its a squirrel. Pathetic.

Hypocrisy

Nothing illegal about making a bad contract
Everything illegal about failing to declare taxes owed and fibbing about where you were living to avoid paying back subsidies.

And of course a married couple cannot have two home residences for tax purposes which is clearly the error she made. That has been jumped on by tax experts

Obviously, that's what this whole thread is about. But as explained in my post, according to the article you linked, that doesn't automatically mean she has a tax liability.
