David Laws, a Liberal Democrat politician in the 2010-12 Cameron-Clegg Coalition Government claimed more than £40,000 on his expenses in the form of second home costs, from 2004 to late 2009, during which time he had been renting rooms at properties owned by what the newspaper claimed to be his "secret lover" and "long-term partner", the dazzlingly handsome, cocktail-drinking, spinach mousse-eating James Lundie, a former Liberal Democrat Press Officer. They were not in a civil partnership. Laws misclaimed second home allowances of between £700 and £950 a month rent between 2006 and 2007, plus typically £100 to £200 a month for maintenance, to rent a room in a flat owned and lived in by Lundie. After Lundie replaced his property with a house in 2007, Laws then claimed rent at £920 a month, until September 2009. Since 2006 the relevant rules banned MPs from "leasing accommodation from... a partner." He also claimed small amounts in respect of his main home in his constituency and his Provencal holiday home. Laws resigned as Chief Secretary to the Treasury on 29 May 2010. His stated reason for his expenses misclaiming was that he had wanted his sexualityto remain private and that he had not benefited financially. No prosecution necessary. Laws returned to Government as Minister of State for Schools in the Department for Education and Minister of State in the Cabinet Office in September 2012.
A Kensington benefits cheat, Mr David Laws, was today given another week's leave from his job - he has been missing for months - and told not to be a silly-billy, or billyana. Laws, a multimillionaire who defrauded the tax-payer of tens of thousands of housing benefit pounds, said he only done it because his parents was against him being a poof, otherwise he wouldn't of done it, he definitely didn't do it for the money, even though he was rich enough to bung his loverboy a few quid, himself, and not trouble the taxpayer. It's true that he claimed the money and gave it to his wife or husband delete as appropriate but he hadn't meant to steal the money, but he did anyway, it was there, and so he had it, that's how you get to be rich, the former banker said, stealing money what doesn't belong to you. And then giving yourself a bonus out of somebody else's money, anybody's'll do.
The thing is, said Unelected Prime Minister, Mr CallHimDave, this is just the sort of deserving case that I and I am sure members of the public are happy to have our taxes spent on, unlike all these cripples pretending to be ill or something, when they could perfectly well go and do a jolly good day of work. Mr Laws is a perfectly decent chap, even though he is a snivelling, lying, disreputable thieving cocksucker, whom no-one has seen for months whilst he has been sulking and licking his wounds and puking his yellow guts up at the unfairness of it all. And quite right too. It's not as though he did anything wrong. I mean, you and I know that our Coalition partners are all arsebandits, every last one of them, and worse, and nothing is safe with them, but Mr and Mrs Law Senior clearly didn't know that junior fished from the other bank, travelled on the other bus or, as my friend, Boris, says, pushed the jolly old brown wheelbarrow uphill. What was he to do, he could either tell his parents that he played the spunk trumpet in his private life or, well, he could steal a load of money from the govament, ie me. But since he stole it but didn't really need it in the first place, that makes everything alright and we look forward to having him back in the govament as soon as jolly well possible. Unlike, of course, Mr Lord Taylor who will, most likely, be going to jail for doing much the same thing. But then he is a jungle bunny, not the sort we want in the Tory party, as I thought had been made clear to him.
The example of Mr Lawses honesty in the face of these allegations makes us all the more determined to crack-down on benefits, I mean benefits fraud, wherever we find it, only not in this place, or the other place, or any of the places where honourable and right honourable members go about their business. Unless they're Darkies or Scotchmen.
ANYDAY, NOW, ANYWAY, NOW,
I SHALL NOT BE RELEASED.
OUT IN TWO.
LORD SILLY-FUCKER.
THE WRONG SORT OF BENEFITS CHEAT.
On 16 July 2010, Lord Taylor of Warwick resigned the ToryWhip after being charged with offences connected with claims totalling £11,277.
Several hundred members of the House of Commons and House of Lords were involved in the expenses scandal but only six members of the House of Commons and two, including Taylor, of the Lords, were charged and convicted.(Is it becus I is black?)
Taylor's defence in the Crown Court was that on appointment to the House of Lords he had asked other peers for advice on expenses and allowances and that he was told that the overnight subsistence allowance, the office allowance, and the travel expenses were provided in lieu of a salary, as well as the daily attendance allowance. As a result of claiming for the cost of journeys he had not made, and the cost of accommodation he had not occupied, Taylor was convicted of six counts of false accounting. Mr Justice Saunders imposed a sentence of 12 months' imprisonment, relating to £11,277 in falsely claimed expenses. he also said that the expenses scandal had "left an indelible stain on Parliament". About 15 members of the House of Lords refused to give evidence to support Taylor's defence. - mrs ishmael
