Why do you single out the Poles?
This was just an example, and nothing aimed directly at poles. The same could be said for any foreigner who decides to settle on these shores for a better lifestyle. It strikes me as strange that most of these foreigners seem to know more about menipulating our own system that what any of us brits even know of the system.
maybe i'm going off topic and digging up a seperate issue?...
I am not begrudging anyone having expences allowances, but lets be real about this - would any of us really have given a toss about what they spend unless media sources showed them for what they really account for.
I find it shocking to see one particular MP claim expences for a 5p carrier bag from ikea, yet earns in excess of ?100k per year salary. What the hell is all that about? 5p for god sake. Fair enough claiming for a new PC so you can have files saved from MI5, or fuel costs to get to a meeting or chartiy event, but for things that dont even apply to their jobs... unreal, no matter the cost.
My ?6 per day lunch allowance is just for that - something to eat and drink for my lunch. Not for magazines, games or to put towards payments for flights, but for my lunch. If i were to claim money back for anything else, I would be investigated, sacked and put up before a jury!!!
These B******s created a system where they could menipulate tax-payers money - such as the flipping houses thingy - so they can bleed us all dry and live like kings, which to me, is nothing short of criminal in pricipal
