In addition to claiming £16000 for a mortgage he'd already paid off, Elliot Morley allegedly rented out his London flat (designated as his main residence) to another Labour MP, who in turn claimed back the £1000 a month rent he paid to Morley!!!
A Tory MP has resigned, saying:
"Due to an error of judgement in accepting advice from the fees office I have let a lot of people down".
That damned Fees Office, misleading our politicians...
