Gordo the Great likes to keep himself clean — why else would he spend (and claim as expenses) more than £21,000 for cleaning costs over 5 years, when the maximum allowable claim was £10,000? And claim twice for the same £1,396 redecorating bill? Oh — and overclaim £302 for gardening allowance? It was just a simple oversight, honest.
Never mind, he’s paid it all back in the last year, after he was caught apprised of the oversight. So that’s all right, then.
But now he has another problem. Fatty Pickles, Tory chairman, is making irritating noises at PMQ’s about an alleged secret £50,000 fund — held by the Labour party — designed for Gordo’s own personal use, and funded by political donations. The PM brushed him off with a curt statement that he didn’t know nuffink about it, guv.
You don’t suppose that Gordo made his repayment from — no, he wouldn’t do that, would he? Would he ?
