Interesting place lobby, how did you find them?

Is that all brand new stock?

Thanks

Personally I'd avoid any site without a physical address and a phone number for contact. Not to mention an address being required by distance selling regs...

And if it seems to good to be true...

Warning: There are some very worrying on-line comments about the website. Among others, people have checked their claimed Euronics and Retra membership, both have apparently never heard of these people.

I'm just doing some further research - they sound to good to be true.

OK - everyone else seems to have seen the same - 'nuff said.

the fact that it is a new site, no address info and the power of Google.

these sites are common and the police have been trying to crack down on them. I believe they are organised crime related and various websites are used across various high end categories.

Andrew - it might be an idea to stick a "NOTE FROM MODERATOR - this site is apparently dodgier than a Tory expsenses claim" in the original post, in case some poor fule clicks on the link without reading the rest of the thread.

I think the rest of the thread makes the opinions clear, and I fear your analogy would not play too well with our Lord and master

Big Aura:apparently dodgier than a Tory expsenses claim

In the interests of polictical balance, the three MPs being prosecuted for their expenses claims are all members of the Labour Party or were until the whip was withdrawn...

Lord Hanningfield, also being prosecuted, IS a Tory peer however.

And the fact that it's just a Wordpress page, which anyone can set up for free.

Big Aura:Apologies. prosecutions aside, moat-maintenance and duck lodgings are what swing it for me!

Neither of which have been deemed to be illegal it seems.

I don't really want to get into this but there are two points which simultaneously amuse and infuriate me about the expenses "scandal":

Firstly, the idea that all those people "outraged" by MPs' expenses claims wouldn't have done exactly the same thing in their position is ludicrous. I'd say at least 90% of the public, upon receiving a phone call from their employer asking "Do you realise you haven't claimed sufficient expenses this month? You should claim for this, this, this and this.", would have replied, "Oh right, ok, cheers" and ticked the box.

Secondly: this. Absolutely brilliant, the body being set up to oversee MPs' expenses is going to cost 6 times the amount that MPs were asked to pay back. So if nobody had said anything, the taxpayer would actually have been better off letting MPs trough to their hearts' content!

Your opinions are unusual and I dare say unpopular, but I agree with you completely.

I actually agree with you, to an extent. MPs' pay is fairly shoddy for what's expected of them, so the inflated expenses was the common work-around to remunerate them properly. That said, the general public do expect a higer degree of accountablilty from John Bull MP, than Johnny 'the plumber' Bull.
