Stephen Pound, gets around

In my part of Ealing the current MP is a fellow called Stephen Pound, and boy, does he get around!

Rent-a-quote Steve claimed £4,251 in mileage costs. Holy crap. Apparently that converts to....11,004 miles --Kerching! (em...Ealing Broadway is about 8 miles from Westminster).

What's up -- is he moonlighting as a taxi driver? He certainly looks like one.

"Said he drove between his constituency and Westminster two or three times a day to get 'out and about'".

That's right Steve, we all do that. And of course, if someone would check the congestion charge records, that would completely prove the probity of your claim...wouldn't it?

I'm heading into town tomorrow -- any chance of lift?
