Another letter from an admirer
I have received another letter from John Mann MP, this time on Labour Party headed paper.
It starts off with
In your childish and highly offensive website you make a large number of inaccurate statements…..
It carries on in a similar vein for a paragraph. It makes no effort to correct the inaccuracies, though,
Fair enough, he’s entitled to his say.
Then he goes on to say
You make inferences that there is something improper regarding my Parliamentary expenses. You are inaccurate and wrong in this. There is and has been nothinng improper.
The rest of the letter goes on to detail his Press credits and other testimonials for being sqeaky clean.
Now, here’s my problem with this. The letter makes no effort to answer the question asked on this blog and by a Retford resident by email.
A question that is met with threats of legal action whenever asked. Namely, regarding the repayment of expenses made by Mr. Mann, what was the claim for and if it is legitimate and claimed on the wrong forms as he says, then why hasn’t he reclaimed it. It is not an insignificant sum.
So, here’s a challenge for Mr. Mann. He likes challenges and has this week offered one of his own in the Worksop Guarding Mann. (Goodbye, George. Can’t say I’ll miss you. Maybe next time we’ll get an editor with the balls to print news instead of fiction.)
Reclaim the money on the correct forms and give it to charity. That seems a neat solution since you don’t seem to care about reclaiming it for yourself. There are a number of charitable institiutions in Bassetlaw who would benefit greatly from £2,395.02
Do this and I’ll get off your case. At least with regard to expenses.
I look forward to your response.
UPDATE: Original post edited after an inaccuracy was pointed out. See, I can be reasonable.
Pigsticking is a form of boar hunting done by individuals, or groups of spearmen on foot or on horseback using a specialized spear. The spear is fitted with a cross guard to stop the enraged animal driving its pierced body further down the shaft in order to attack its killer before dying.
Dont you just love to hear them squeal
A very nasty Mann indeed. All MPs deserve to be tarred with the same brush as they all do nothing to rid Westminster of their own corruption, some just stand by and let the evil ones do as they please and continue their dishonest fraudulent criminal ways. In my book that’s aiding and abetting others to commit crime. If they had any moral integrity they would resign immediately in disgust and join the people in our fight for honest politics for the people and for the sake of the country rather than their stinking greedy selves. Man up Mann, except you stink whether its your fault or not lets see you do as Gordon would say, the right thing. Chuck in the towel to the house of thieves and do an honest job if any fool will have you.
You better watch yourself then. Would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see your name in the press alongside a hefty legal fee for slander/ defamation.
Could you explain what is wrong with an MP claiming their PDA on expenses? It seems legitimate to me. I have a work phone that my company pays for too.
this bassetlaw vote mongering TORY councillor spends all day obsessing over john mann mp and write drivvle rather than helping and supporting his constituents
I see you have got em goin
@ Michael Noughty
Hope you declared your company paid for phone costs to HMC&E cos it’s not tax deductable.
Looks to me like the Mann sent one of his minions over to comment without understanding what Mann did. Typical. Defend something other than what has been claimed.
He’s still a wanker and it seems his supporters are just as wankerish….
Wonder if they’re thieves too?
