Anne Moffat must reveal contents of Legg letter
October 15, 2009 12:54 PM
Stuart Ritchie, East Lothian Liberal Democrat Prospective Parliamentary Candidate has today called on Labour MP Anne Moffat to tell her constituents if she has to pay back any of her expenses covering the last five years.
Despite numerous attempts to contact her the East Lothian MP refused to tell the local media whether she had received a letter and if so what it said.
Speaking today Stuart Ritchie said:
"Anne Moffat should tell her constituents if she has had a letter and if she is to pay any money back.
"The people of East Lothian will not understand why she appears to shy away from revealing the contents of any letter and they deserve to know what the letter says.
"It seems many MPs think if they bury their heads in the sand this whole expenses scandal will go away. It wont go away while MPs refuse to be open and honest with their electorate. Until then the public will rightly hold them in contempt."
