Review MP expenses, regulate what can be claimed for and stop excessive claims
Some MPs have claimed expenses that total in excess of £200,000, this is insulting to taxpayers especially when trivial things can be claimed for like jaffa cakes, TV licences, energy bills for second homes. MPs should be responsible with expense claims and held to account when abusing public funds.
