David Cameron admits 70 MPs employ family

David Cameron has revealed that more than 70 Conservative MPs are employing members of their family, as he joined calls for more transparency in the wake of the Derek Conway controversy.

His announcement comes after the Speaker of the House of Commons refused to bow to mounting pressure to disclose full details of MPs' taxpayer-funded expenses.

Michael Martin blocked publication of a list of MPs' staff in 2006 and his spokesman said last night that he had "no intention" of reversing the decision.

A step in the right direction!
A pensioner has to undergo strict examination to obtain their true rights, but MP's can give them £250 at a time without any scrutiny. THIS HAS TO BE WRONG.
THERE IS NO OBJECTION FOR SPOUSES WORKING FOR EACH OTHER AS LONG AS A TRUE RECORD AND RECEIPTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AND INVESTIGATION.
GLASGOW MICK, TAKE HEED.
