Dear editor

I must reply to the sycophantic letter by Pete Killingley showing his support of MP Stephen Crabb. Is Mr Killingley president of the Stephen Crabb fan club?

MPs did not make mistakes — they saw an opportunity to make more money over and above their salaries, and they got caught. It was tax-payers money. Does anybody think that money would have been repaid if the MPs expenses scandal hadn’t broken?

For MPs to hide behind the claim that they took advice, opinion etc from anonymous experts, adds insult to the tax payer’s injury.

Mr Killingley stated publicy that he will be voting for Mr Crabb at the next election. May I state that I will not (thus cancelling out Mr Killingley’s vote).

I don't forgive that easily.
