Our home secretary should be sacked! Charging porn to her expense account! How long will MP's get away with this nonsense? Grrr

The alleged 'accident' occurred as she charged TV subscription which included adult movies to her expense account.

If our home sec gets something as trivial as this wrong, what the hell is she doing when on the job?

rant with me here

    Perhaps it's BECAUSE she's focused on more important things that she could get something "as trivial as this" wrong?

      no excuses

      These fat cats milk us for everything they can, this isn't the first time she's done it.

      from en wikipedia

      "The Secretary of State for the Home Department, commonly known as the Home Secretary, is the minister in charge of the United Kingdom Home Office and is one of the Great Offices of State. The Home Secretary is responsible for internal affairs in England and Wales, and for immigration and citizenship for the whole of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland).

      The remit of the UK ministry includes policing, national security, immigration, and matters of citizenship.

      The current Home Secretary is Jacqui Smith, the first female to hold the position."

      Maybe this will help identify the post in USA?

    Yet another Daily Mail style opinion...everyone else finds it hilarious...but no, you have to have a big old rant about it! You honestly think she even knew her husband had been watching porn at their house? Poor guy must be mortified!

    She's a muppet, but could we focus on something more important than this? She's paying the money for it, so what's your beef?

      I think I'll dedicate a rant to 'trolls' next, I've been inspired.

      Done.
    2. Epicharis
      yes, what I said was very trollish, wasn't it?

      Just because I disagree with you doesn't mean I'm a troll.

      @CelebrityIcePop

      I tried to post this to your shoutbox, but you've blocked me so I have to do it here. (sorry everyone else).

      I'm not a troll and I'm not stalking you. If you really don't like being disagreed with you shouldn't post rants on a forum. People are going to disagree with you so either get used to it or stop posting opinions.

      As it happens, I have previously agreed with you:
      www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/1-billion-people-to-turn-off-their-lights...

      So the idea that I'm following you around BC just to piss you off is daft...and very egotistical!

      If you want to respond, do it is my shoutbox.

    These Mp's are taking the biscuit!

    Maybe we should consider veiwing nudity a Natural Right, since it occurs in the natural state.

      I am not bothered about their tv viewing habits, just that they tried to get US to pay for them, they could be watching Cbeebee's for all I care.

    oh come now, everyone has needs.... if she hadn't been working so hard hubby could have just fullfilled them that way... That is too funny. Go Porn!
    1. CelebrityIcePop
      Like I said, this isn't about the porn. It's about her continuing negligence where her expenses are concerned and in general the fact that UK MP's can claim for all manner of things at our expense. The other blogger summed it up better. Meanwhile, what else is she fluffing up?
