From the People who brought you the Bedroom Tax

Maria Miller is rumoured to be in trouble over House of Commons expenses claims for a second home.  What I find extraordinary about this is that the same government ministers who are implementing the bedroom tax and the other so-called welfare reforms all have histories like this which people seldom remark on.  To most people many of the claims made by Francis Maude, Maria Miller, Eric Pickles etc. are just ways of scamming the taxpayer.  Many of them look less defensible that some of the benefits claimants that the papers kick up a fuss about.
