The Labour Party wants to put the Winter fuel allowance and the £800,000 of gifts received by ministers behind us. Is this a real option for the people who will suffer as our new masters unapologeticly feast on freebies?

And then we have the government wine cellars (GWC) another £24million.

Carlton Gardens is so grand that the King had a long campaign to acquire it for himself (years ago).

They’re all too fond of ‘the cost of x costs us xxx’. But most of our National Expenditure is actually ‘other’ spending: Why oh why do the public never ask about it?

Sometime ago, the Iranian Minister said that a US Navy aircraft carrier would be an easy target for 300 speed boats armed with Katyusha rocket launchers. Is this true?

It astonishes me that warmth for pensioners is unaffordable, but the cost of running Chequers, Dorneywood, Chevenning, Admiralty House and 1 Carlton Gardens isn’t even mentioned.

That £800,000 is just the tip of the iceberg.

And then we have the subsidesed bars and restaurants in Westminster Palace, the last workplace in Britain where drinking during your shift is seen to be ‘safe’.

Can you share any "backstage pass" experiences you have had at concerts?
