Politicians - "Kitting Out" in the U.K.
I wonder if U.S. politicians are similar, or worse!...
Daniel Martin reports in the U.K. Daily Mail:
"They are allowed to claim a total of £22,000 for a range of items ranging from a £200 food processor and a £750 high-definition TV to £10,000 for a new kitchen and £6,000 for a bathroom.
The secret list of 38 items MPs can claim back from the taxpayer for their second homes was revealed last night under the Freedom of Information Act after the authorities fought to keep it under wraps. "
