Why can’t they do this now?

From the Telegraph : MPs will no longer be able to cash in on lucrative resettlement allowances if they stand down at future general elections or are defeated. Current rules mean MPs are given up to £60,000 – almost a full year’s salary - when they leave the Commons. The system has been called into disrepute after The Daily Telegraph’s expenses disclosures led to a number of...

News at Eleven: In 1966 he [Ian Gibson] tracked down a man

known locally as "Manolo the Communist", who as a teenager was forced to dig graves for the fascist death squads in Spain's southern Granada province. Manolo took the Irish-born historian--along with three others--to the exact place where he recalled burying [Federico Garcia] Lorca. A stone plinth close to a lone olive tree marks the spot--and it is here that the archaeologists will dig....

Gordon's Dilemma

Paul Waugh in The Evening Standard reports that five Labour backbenchers are threatening to quit over the Legg report and his demands for the repayment of expenses triggering by elections as Ian Gibson did in Norwich in the summer. Presumably they are calculating that this threat will force Brown to back down and take a softer line on the repayment issue. Yet if he does, in marked contrast to the other...

Legg Letters Pile on Unnecessary Agony

I was in two minds whether to use a picture of Tomas Torquemada rather than Sir Thomas Legg, so closely have their roles appeared to merge. After the shameful idiocy of the expenses scandal we now have its pathetic revival whereby expenses drawn(and approved) years ago are being raked over yet again and some MPs asked to repay substantial sums while others escape virtually scott-free. Public opinion...

Labour MPs may sue over expenses

Backlash grows against Gordon Brown's leadership ■At least 10 Labour MPs are considering taking legal action against their own party over the way in which they have been treated during the expenses scandal, according to senior party figures. The group includes Jim Devine, MP for Livingston, who was deselected by Labour's "star chamber" in a row over disputed claims worth £4,500...

Whirlwind Chloe

Chloe Smith, winner of the Norwich North byelection at the end of July, has breezed into Westminster like a whirlwind this week. She took her seat, as you might expect, on Monday, the first day the Commons was back in action after the scandalously long 82-day summer recess. But she also wasted no time in making her maiden speech, rising to her feet on day three, during an Opposition debate on higher...

Does Labour really have the nerve to take tough action on expenses?

By Jessica Asato / @Jessica_Asato I’ve just finished listening to Harriet Harman on the Today Programme. I’m left none the wiser about what Labour’s leadership deems to be unacceptable behaviour in relation to expense claims, and about what action Labour MPs should face. I still can’t see why all of this couldn’t have been sorted out in July, or through an extended summer...

Expenses Are Back and Better Than Ever

The big break was back in May when the Daily Telegraph started published details of leaked documents from the Fees Office. After years of digging their heels in, Parliament finally gave way and published farcical redacted documents a few weeks later. The difference between the two sets of documents proved that the Parliament produced record omitted details that would reveal the second home flipping....

The race for SW Norfolk

I am delighted to learn that James Tumbridge has made it through to the final stage of the selection as Conservative parliamentary candidate for South West Norfolk. He stood in Ian Gibson’s seat in Norwich North in 2005 – recently won by Chloe Smith who makes her maiden speech tomorrow – and has kept his house [...]

Arisia groks the local tongue.

So in the Millennium trade paperback (by Steve Englehart, Joe Staton and Ian Gibson), there's a scene where alien Green Lantern Arisia comments on her own acclimation to life on Earth...well, specifically to one particular region of Earth: Well, that seemed rife with possibilities, and while the original panel is Funny Because It's True (I mean, I'm an American, and I love my grub and drink), I suspected...

The View From ‘Fort UKIP’

David Challice writes about his experience from the Norwich North By-Election. The taxi drivers soon christened it “Tingle Town”, due to all the VOTE GLENN TINGLE posters springing up in one part of Norwich last July. To set the scene, Ian Gibson was the popular and independently-minded Labour MP for Norwich North. But when caught in the expenses scandal his own party turned on him, and...

Denis MacShane Talking Sense

Yes, you read aright. Among other wise words herein , Sir Nicholas Winterton does in fact deserve an enormous amount of credit. MacShane focuses on his opposition to Mugabe when that monster was being backed by Thatcher and knighted by Major. Rightly so. But there is plenty more. And Sir Anthony Steen’s work against child-trafficking, and his long campaign to expose the disappearances from the...

Horribly unfair posting alert !

Before the Norwich game this afternoon I saw new Norwich North MP Chloe Smith in the club shop (she looked slightly hassled so I didn't speak to her). Presumably (as many MPs do) she was going to attend the match in order to confirm her local credentials (although she may well have been a fan for years). Anyway, it occurred to me after the game that I often used to see Ian Gibson (her predecessor in...
