Should Labour MPs be supporting unreceipted exs?

Simple question. Which Labour MP will lead the defence of unreceipted expenses?

There is a risk of this issue getting lost by Labour MPs in defence of the Speaker who are attacking the BBC's political editor, Nick Robinson.

I doubt it will be David Winnick MP. He got slapped down by the Speaker in the House yesterday for having the temerity to suggest that the Speaker's review should be speeded up. (Can't find link in Hansard - maybe classed as 'Private Business' and unrecorded.)

In any event, I think he deserves an apology from the Speaker in the wake of today's news that the Speaker's review is being....speeded up. Among the suggestions for reform being given prominence ...yes, you have guessed...unreceipted exs, at least according to the BBC report:

The Commons Members Estimate Committee said it would publish its findings before Parliament rises for the summer....

The committee also said the £250 limit for MPs submitting expenses claims without a receipt would be cut.

This will happen from the start of the next financial year in April, with the new maximum expected to be about £50.

Why not £0?
