So in the UK we awake this morning to yet another story of abuse of expenses by MP's,And the most annoying thing about this outing is that David Laws is a member of the new coalition,Which brings home the fact that nothing has changed.We have had a general election with a record number of MP's stepping down due to expense scandals,So for this story to come after the election is especially annoying.Politicians just cannot be trusted,Its sad that things are the way they are but this is the fact,They just cannot be trusted.

I was begining to think that the United States was the only country with corrupt politions.........Your right you can't trust any of them anymore they only want to know how much they can steal from the people they are suppost to be protecting..... What's surprising is people from other countries are now starting to speak out on the thing they are doing.....

We have the same problems here in the US. It is sad when people in a position of power abuse that power. I think they should be held to a higher standard.

Its pretty old news to be honest, and its no surprise. I did vote in the past election, but I wasnt really that interested because they all SAY they're going to do all these wonderful things, but they never deliver and our country just spirals out of control. The only thing that keeps me going each day is the notion that hopefully in the next few years we'll be able to emigrate and actually go to a country where we can live in peace without worrying about EVERYTHING going on around us. Mr Cameron certainly has alot to sort out, and I guess his fellow MPs are just the start of it.
