Expenses abuse.

[tiggerblue10]

2 years ago a junior manager working in a different department to me was sacked for taking his staff for a meal and drinks every Friday and using a work issued credit card. The Security Unit investigated him and sacked him.

Its strange that MP's have been getting away with expense fraud for years yet a junior manager is dismissed for doing a similar thing.

tigger....you have got it wrong, all the expenses claimed were within the rules.

Nothing illegal.

I'll crawl back under my stone then.

Goodbye.

I assume it's all down to the definition of "reasonable".....

[sqad617]

tigger.....can I come with you?

Craft......the MP's don't decide what expenses are reasonable,this is done by the civil servant.

[craft1948]

sqad............that would be the civil servants whose boss was told by the lovely Gorbals Mick not to rock the boat would it?

[sqad617]

Craft....exactly.
