Kaikou Posted July 26, 2009 #1 Share Posted July 26, 2009 William Hague, the Shadow Foreign Secretary, is one of two Tory MPs who have been given free rail passes by Grand Central trains, which offers a high speed service between London and the north east.Mr Hague received a complimentary first class travel pass valid until March 2010, a perk which may anger his constituents in Richmond, North Yorkshire, who would have to pay around £300 per return journey for the same service. Robert Goodwill, MP for Scarborough and Whitby, declared a free rail pass from the same company, although it was not clear what class of travel had been offered. Read more... Source: www.telegraph.co.uk I don't know how everyone else here feels about this, but after the MPs expenses row that has been going on, this just takes the cake. I understand that these MPs need to travel, for work purposes and such, but what is stopping them from abusing these services? Am I the only person that is feeling fairly angry about this? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevewinn Posted July 26, 2009 #4 Share Posted July 26, 2009 (edited) well its nothing new. These MP's where given them, not asked for. (they could have said no, and paid their way which would have went down better) I remember Wayne Rooney become a sensation-Ford motor company gave him a brand new car for free. It seems the people who have money and can afford these luxuries get them as freebies. while the rest of us bust our balls. Its are own fault. we put up with all this ****, and same goes for celebrities we build them up like modern day gods. they live the life of Riley; the rest of use scrummage around the bottom of the barrel.
