Where Are Clegg's Expenses?
It is 43 days since Nick Clegg told us with regard to MP's expenses
"...there is no earthly reason why the rest of the information should not be published immediately. Any delay will only add to the British public’s distrust in their politicians.”
It is a month since they were due to be delivered according to the time-table given to Guido by his spin-mistress Hannah Gardiner. Where are the expenses?
Hannah gave an entirely different (and somewhat irrelevant) explanation to Sky's Cheryl Smith. If there is one thing Guido learnt from Hain's expenses scandal, is that delay is a sign of something to hide. Guido has called Clegg's office repeatedly asking when his expenses will be published. As Clegg told us himself, delay will only add to distrust...

Perhaps he his hiding behind the Glasgow soapbox's case in the High Court, trying to obfurscat for long enough to get any embarrassments under the carpet.
43 days eh?
That's one day more than Brown wants to lock up a Dude without charge.
Perhaps Nick is making a political point?
I think there are 30 cheques they can't account for, that's the delay...
Guido should put a Calamity Clegg Clock on his front page. 43 days, 5 hours and 22 minutes without Clegg's expenses.
OT - London reject Ken Livingslime is on CiF. Log on and tell him why we rejected the slimy little squirt.
Sounds pretty crooked to me,, but there again we are discussing politicians.
This sounds like that this will bring HOURS of great entertainment. I wonder what he's got to hide? Surely not paying for Charlie K's carry-out? Surely not lending Oaten a few quid to pay for a thing he rented? Surely not paying to have good 'ol Ming carbon dated? Hey-up- Francis Urquhart in action: all the 'top' Libbies 'offed'! Other than that, he could be a secret subscriber to 'Embarrased Liberal Democrats daily' and doesn't want that embarrasing fact to out!
Clegg:
"Do what I say, but not what I do"
Our 'best' from Robinson Coll. is undermining his own credibility faster than even Mr Bean. And that is saying something.
I notice that the Lib-Dems' poll ratings are still low, even when Labour's hit rock bottom - so when are Vince's supporters going to move against Calamity?
Is there anything more pointless in the world than the Liberal Democrats? I fuckin' 'ates 'em I do. Our local Lib Dems produce a monthly newsletter which consists of photographs of their prospective councillors and parliamentary candidates 'pointing' at things. There's nothing these fuckers wont point at: holes in the road, a badly lit back-passage, the new one-way system and, in the last edition, one of the fuckers is actually standing on a street corner grimly pointing at a pile of dog shit. Vote Lib Dem! The party that points at dog shit.
Looks like Mr Clegg is another bent politician.
They never learn.
George
To be fair to the Lib Dems I expect they one of the few fields they can be counted experts in would be back passages, badly lit or not.
However you perfectly describe the yellow headed shredder fodder that appeared several times through the letterbox in late April.
I detested Paddy Ashdown, horribly smug ('pretentious - moi?') but at least he had some charisma (why did he go though: surely something dodgy must have been about to break?). Then came Kennedy (and a bottle or two of whiskey) and at least he was human.
So it goes on, downhill all the way. If Clegg has something to hide he should have been slower to imply the I-am-Whiter-than-White style of attack on others in politics. On the other hand that would require use of the grey matter, with which so many politicians seem so poorly endowed: Clegg is no exception!
Where is Clegg these days anyway, I see much more of Huhn - perhaps Clegg is afraid he will be publicly challenged on the expenses issue?
Po-faced Guardian's silence on Cleggs non disclosure of his expenses is DEAFENING!!!!
Why should Cleggie boy publish his ex's.
Foggy and the rest of the tossers have been using public funds to fight disclosure for Parliamentarians. He's just slip-streaming hoping for it all to die down.
Guido,
Forget the caption comp this week. As Clegg is so reluctant to publish his expenses list, why don't readers try and come up with their own versions of what it may contain?
As for a prize, I don't know, maybe a John Lewis voucher?
What what I heard Charles Kennedy was more partial to the beer than the whisky.
i thought distrust and politicians were synonymous...is it different across the pond?
Cleggy should watch out, lest Hannah Gardiner ,ex-spinerette to the Chief Policer Officers Assocition, shops him to the fuzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!

Chicken Clegg donor, a Mr Robert J Chicken from London may be interested in learning how Nick blew his generous donation of £5000.

There's definitely a hidden coiffeuring agenda going on here. I'm betting on at least a few 100k blown on hairdos, manicure, assorted beauty treatments, skin salves, lotions, conditioners, fragrant herbalistic shower gels, ear-plucking, nose-tweaking, nipple depilation, armpit-mowing, chest-hair management, butt-waxes, leg-polishing, dainty fuzz-designs, bath-oils, yoghurt & cucumber face-packs, anti-wrinkle formulas, gold-membership at a string of male-perfumeries, 'authentic finnish sauna' bills, birch twigs and God know what else...
And I daresay I'm barely scratching the surface here...after all, I'm hardly a connoisseur of this fluffy buffy stuff. Can't understand what these silly girls see in the guy, frankly. Give me a sweaty smelly scruffy grunting salivating John Prescott between the thighs anyday, thanks.
Mr Bynsellem aka Justin Byam-Shaw aka Mr Poker Channel and 5000 smackers benefactor to Clegg may be one shrewd operator. Has Cleggy lost his shirt expenses on some kind ofpoker?
Anyone know Chicken Clegg's Mr Richard Chicken????
I need drinking money?
The Cleggster will publish the expenses on the lib dems website on Wednesday.
