Have a look at this:

Remember when we paid £2,115 to clean an MP’s moat? In 2009, many MPs were found to have abused taxpayers’ money by claiming outrageous expenses. Trust in our politicians crumbled…further. But despite this, you’d never guess what they’re planning to do now.
Plans are being floated to hide the names of MPs whose expenses are being looked into. And make details of expenses less thorough. But our MPs work for us, so what they spend out money on is our business.
IPSA, the watchdog which sets the rules for MPs expenses, is asking public opinion before anything is set in stone. So a huge people-powered petition demanding that politicians expenses are kept public could force the plans to be dropped.
We've only got until Friday before the consultation closes. Can you sign it now?
