Some people continue to believe they are above the law, apart from Mrs C. See here: http://order-order.com/2010/07/30/lord-chief-justices-rules-mps-to-be-treated-as-common-criminals/

These three MPs and single Lord are going to end up in Court and the evidence tested as to the charges of fraud.
Unless of course they make some further appeal and win it – who is paying for these Court cases? I suspect it is the taxpaying public.
The Telegraph states:
“The four men are now expected to take their case to the Supreme Court for a further appeal, meaning any trials, which had been expected to start at Southwark Crown Court in London in November, might now be delayed until next year.”
The BBC report here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-10814765 and the Telegraph here: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/mps-expenses/7918481/Former-MPs-charged-with-abusing-expenses-will-face-criminal-trials.html
What absolute twats.
