On his website, in a moment of pious fury, he says:<BR/><BR/>"At the end of the day the money that MPs get to do their jobs should be open to public scrutiny just like all the public sector. What we are seeing here – is a Government desperately scrambling to avoid bad headlines."<BR/><BR/>I think what we're seeing now is a pathetic fat man scrambling to avoid his massive restaurant receipts from Strasbourg's finest hotels finding their way into the public realm.<BR/><BR/>Yes, we know food can be claimed for, Paul. And judging by your burgeoning waistline you've done a fair bit of claiming in this department.<BR/><BR/>See the hypocrite's words here:<BR/><BR/>http://www.paulrowen.co.uk/news/75/rowen-to-vote-against-foi-exemptionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38067964.post-77288920791240343262009-03-23T09:07:00.000+00:002009-03-23T09:07:00.000+00:00If John Swarbrick posts under the moniker "Home Th...If John Swarbrick posts under the moniker "Home Thoughts" on Rochdale Online, does that suggest his thinking is mobile?

Why don't they (the three young Labour campaigners) ask for the expenses of Jim Dobbin, Woolas etc etc? Err, because Paul Rowen is their MP, Dave. Not Woolas. Not Dobbin. And Rowen is getting up everone's nose with his holier than thou stance on expenses while bagging a fortune himself - all shrouded in secrecy of course.<BR/><BR/>And how much did he claim for in Councillor expenses while an MP?<BR/><BR/>Don't you pesky kids understand, Dave seems to be saying, it's our moral high ground, not yours. If we want to criticise other MPs then it's our entitlement. But how very dare you ask Paul Rowen to be accountable.<BR/><BR/>How very dare you!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
