The report on MPs’ expenses (The Argus, March 31) highlights some interesting comparisons. In particular, why do the ten Conservative MPs have to spend well over £20,000 on second homes when our two Brighton Labour MPs manage on just £11,175 and £12,321?
Then there is Celia Barlow who makes no second home claim at all. At a time when other politicians are bringing themselves and politics into disrepute we can be proud of the record of our local Members of Parliament.
