Furious about this, The general public is facing serious financial worries with many businesses going under, yet MP's are being given £10,000.....

    It's ok, we can also claim back tax relief of £1.20/week while working from home!

    Tbf, the system being offered to MPs is no different to what any employer SHOULD offer to set them up with what they need to work from home, however £10k is a joke. They are not being given it though, but it's an extra expenses pot.

    I would like to say that I can't read the full article as it's behind a paywall, and it is a newspaper which I inherintly don't trust, so I'd reserve judgement that there MAY be more to it, but it wouldn't surprise me this is the case. However I'd rather wait for someone like FullFact to substantiate the claim.
