Puts a bit more realistic perspective on it doesnt it??
Cigarette fraud is 6.5 times more costly than the MP expenses
Remember only £11 million of the expenses were fraudulent!!
That makes smokers smoking illegal fags 45 times a bigger problem than MP expenses
So smokers should look at the facts before bleating about being hard done by
