   Ian, let’s get our facts right. One side of politics has done it a much more than the other in recent years.
   Abbott claimed thousands of dollars in travel expenses to attend a wedding and charity events.
   Barnaby Joyce claimed $8000 to attend rugby games in Brisbane as well as attending weddings held overseas.
   Another WA Liberal MP, Don Randall, claimed thousands of dollars to fly to Cairns to buy an investment property.
   The list goes on.
   The only Labor MP caught out in these recent rorts is Mark Dreyfus.
   His claim was $245.
   There is no doubt about it. Coalition MP’s have had their snouts in the trough much more than their Labor counterparts when it comes to claiming dodgy travel expenses.

   @ Phil both sides of Politics do this if I had my way they would pay it back and cop a hefty fine and what a disgrace and a waste of rate payers money.

   Wonder if they claimed travel expenses to go to weddings, charity and sporting events like Tony Abbott and a number of his government colleagues did?
   I would like to think that the Colac councillors were more honest than that.
