What would Churchill have made of our MP's expenses?
No, I don't mean the great politician. I'm referring to the insurance company of that name.

When it comes to MP's expenses, nobody is better qualified to find a reason not to pay out on a claim than an insurance company.
If only MP's had observed - "We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give" - we wouldn't be in the fine mess that we are now in.
