Having found myself championing her - moi ?!! I looked at the YouTube bit where she gets a merciless grilling from Andrew Neil on the subject of her claims for taxis and other things, and I must admit she looks very shaky. If I am to continue acting in her defence, I can only say that it would be interesting to see A.Neil's expenses from the BBC, which is also public money, and, though we all get entertainment out of YouTube, it is a pretty merciless way of assessing somebody, i.e. by taking a small fragment of someone in public life when at their most vulnerable, and making it so public. I shudder to think of it happening to me!
