Time for a new start - for a new wholesome regime in Parliament - this is the man that can make changes, that is unscrupulous, morally virtuous and willput his needs before others  noooo: noooo: noooo:


details of Mr Bercow’s expenses raised questions over whether he was the right man to clean up the parliamentary allowances system. Land Registry records obtained by The Daily Telegraph showed that in May 2003, six months after he got married, Mr Bercow sold his constituency home in Adstock, Bucks, for £162,000 and bought another house in the county. Records do not show how much profit he made.

In September 2003, Mr Bercow sold a flat in Victoria, London, for £335,000, which he had bought in 1998 for an undisclosed sum. He and his wife, Sally, then bought a flat in a nearby block.

Mr Bercow, a former merchant banker, flipped the designation of his second home between London and his constituency so that each house was designated as his main home at the time he sold it, meaning he did not have to pay CGT.

A list of MPs who have repaid money claimed on expenses, published by parliament last week, showed that Mr Bercow paid back £1,470.62 he claimed on his office expenses but it was not disclosed what the repayment was for.

In addition to his parliamentary salary, Mr Bercow is paid between £35,000 and £40,000 as an adviser to a private health care company registered in the Cayman Islands.
