It looks like Westminster parliamentarians are not alone in causing raised eyebrows amongst constituents over expense claims.
This from Wales Online...
ONLY one AM uses a rail season ticket to travel between his home and the Senedd, we can reveal.
The disgruntled Chairman of the Shrewsbury-Aberystwyth Rail Passengers Association writes:
"Could it be that being able to claim mileage rates whilst only being able to recover the cost of public transport fares encourage our political representatives not to travel by public transport therefore meaning that they fail to understand the issues and have no stake in making improvements?"
Elected representatives maximising allowances - surely not.
