Martin is going!



[ETA: Meanwhile Gordon Brown said no Labour MP who broke expenses rules would stand at the next election. — is that the most meaningless commitment ever, given that breaking the rules isn't exactly the issue?]

You are quite right. I suspect that in practical terms most of them didn't realise the need to reform it and thus it wasn't on their radar. Those who would have had the seniority to think of such things probably had what seemed like more important things to deal with.

I'm not seeking to excuse them, merely explain the situation.

Anyway, they are now all paying the price for not attempting to do anything to change it.
