Clean up lies
editThe article says: "Vindication and exoneration. A report from a Parliamentary watchdog cleared IDS of any wrongdoing: The Commissioner "found no evidence that Duncan Smith made improper claims under the Additional Costs Allowance in respect of his home". However, he found that a significant proportion of Mrs Duncan Smith's work, and that paid to Miss Annabelle Eyre and Mrs Christine Watson in their roles of Private Secretary to the Leader of the Opposition "would more appropriately have been funded out of Short Money than out of the Parliamentary Staffing Allowance. Nevertheless, it was accepted that there was an absence of definition of key terms meaning that members had no guidance to scope their two allowances. The Commons Standards Committee found that IDS's arrangements “were not ideal” and that no rules had been broken.[2]"
This simply isn't true. IDS was condemed by the committee's findings. Money was misused. the whole thing is biased in favour of IDS. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.219.249.5 (talk) 18:25, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
