In his regular poetry column 'Evidently Spencertown', Spencer Robertshaw writes of the overdue fate of expense account MPs
Article
Constitutional digress, now that’s an overpaid mess
Lovely expense accounts paying for moats on duck ponds
We all sit in the seats
One party the same as the other
We are just side on different sides
But in the lodge we are all brothers
We shout at each other all day
Hey
We shout at each other all day
Hey
If you want a new Armani suit
Or a clean green car with a spacious boot
A second home next to the other
Or a full time wage for your deceased mother
Put the chitty in - Hey
Put the chitty in - Hey
If you want to shout like Lulu
Or take a trip to Honolulu
Have call girls wipe your botty
Or keep some on the side totty
Get paid and shout all day - Hey
Get paid and shout all day - Hey
If you get caught just resign
No criminal charges today
No sworn statements to sign
Forget the fraud,it will go away
No, not now, it’s time to pay
Give back the money they siphoned away
Then a nice stay on Her Majesty’s pleasure
The look on their faces is something to treasure.
