NEVER before have I contacted a newspaper but these MPs "take the biscuit".

Thank you for letting us know about Mr Stride and all the other MP's.

Where do I apply to join their club, claiming 3k while giving pensioners 200 quid heating allowance?

They have just legalised the system for themselves.

Happy Christmas!

• Editor's note: Mr Stride is, overall, one of the lowest claiments of MP's expenses in the South West.
