If you have over claimed on your benefits, I understand you have a short time frame to pay the money back in full, or they either take it out of your future benefits until it is paid, or get a court order to get it back through other means. Now surely, she should be treated in the same way? It is still stealing from the government!

Partial he tweeted 'about time!' When she resigned and refused to delete it. Grin He said they asked him to resign and he refused so they sacked him over HS2 instead. He's still an MP though.

So's she! She only resigned from the cabinet.

Quite cushty isn't it? Be kicked from your cabinet one morning and still have your 'low paid' £60k a year salaried job in the evening eh?...

I agree, Misspixie. Out should mean out, IMO. How many people in the real world get to lose only part of their job and hang on to the rest?

Misspixietrix · 11/04/2014 10:32

Out doesn't

Sorry. Out doesn't mean out though. It means take a few months off until its all died down then I will make a new Job title up just for you. Wink.
