MPs’ Expenses Revisited

Please note that embedding has been disabled on the video. Not my doing. I reckon Youtube may have done it after a request by a third party. A clue is given by the logo that has appeared on the YouTube page.
Still, it could have been removed completely.
I was always unhappy with the end of the video and the artefacts on the text so I’ve added a bit to the end and done some tidying up.
I’m putting the blog into hibernation for a while. It’s about time I worked on different things rather than do the same old stuff. I’m not exactly learning anything new and I really need to move on.
I may put up an image or video from time to time but these will be few and far between.
Thanks to all the regulars for visiting.

So,
