"Prime Mentalist Gordon Brown said Mr Kumar was "a tenacious campaigner" and "a warm and incredibly generous man" - Easy to be generous when you are ripping the taxpayer off!
Greedy fuck probably died of a heart attack! A Good riddance* to another parasite! "Mr Kumar regularly claimed the maximum £400-per month for food, including during the summer recess, when MPs are in their constituencies - which also breaches Commons rules.
In total, he claimed £87,729 for accommodation and living costs between 2004 and 2008 - the maximum allowed."
"In early 2005 he kitted it out buying a sofa, a flat-screen TV and an 'easy chair' with stool, to a TV aerial with a 16ft mast , a table and chairs, a dishwasher, a microwave oven, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers, a dressing table and a DVD recorder.
One month later, Mr Kumar billed the taxpayer nearly £800 for repairs to his original flat, which included work to 'remove mirrors from false ceiling above bath".
* A Good riddance... only a few more crooked MP's left to go!
Meaning (I just love these British old sayings)...
An expression of pleasure on being rid of some annoyance - usually an individual.
Origin
From Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida, 1606:
THERSITES: I will see you hanged, like clotpoles, ere I come any more to your tents: I will keep where there is wit stirring and leave the faction of fools.
PATROCLUS: A good riddance.
