What? A hypocritical politician?

It's awful hard sometimes to prevent oneself from feeling that some people in politics are intent on feathering their own nest.
A quick look at a couple of our local Yorkshire M.P.'s expenses shows the following:

David Curry:

• 2001/2 - £81,825
• 2004/5 - £131,533

Anne Cryer:

• 2001/2 - £88,780
• 2004/5 - £146,955

Their answer to this is simple, abandon the Freedom of Information Act, but only for M.P.'s and then we won't know what they're taking in the way of expenses.
Brilliant!

Curry supported this exemption along with around 80% of other M.P.'s by the teflon method of abstaining.
Cryer, however, was at the forefront of this tacky little scheme for hiding expenses, a scheme thought out by one David Maclean, a happy chappie who scoots around on his top of the range quad bike (paid for by us) whilst visiting his multitudinous mistresses, one of who he managed to install into two well paid jobs, working for the government of course. His present mistress is single mother Jane Rapson, who is coincidentally secretary to David Curry.
Cryer was an early signatory to this bill, along with Straw and Jowell, and she bleated that exemption was needed to protect the anonymity of her constituents - totally untrue, as was proven just yesterday.
Her personal aide was standing as a councillor in a safe Labour area of Keighley, having reportedly tossed out - sorry 'deselected' - the standing councillor. This didn't seem to sit too well with the electorate, and it became a Tory victory.
So Cryer told Parliament that people had told her, in confidence, that dirty tricks had been used by the winner of the election. She wasn't going to name names, to protect them.
Oh!
Wait a minute!
That's not hypocrisy is it?
Claiming that exemption from FOI was needed to protect the anonymity of constituents?
Nope, it's just plain old fashioned lying.
Now who could have imagined a politician lying?
