Regular Reader spotted this story, which also mentions Sarah Champion’s rather large claim.
Wales Office minister Alun Cairns had the highest total expense claim of any Welsh MP in 2014-15
A separate analysis of the expenses which excluded the cost of travel found the biggest total claimants in 2014-15 were DUP MPs Jim Shannon (£205,798.23) and Ian Paisley Jr (£195,247.59), followed by former Lib Dem minister Jo Swinson (£193,224.73). They were followed by former Conservative MP Gregory Barker (£193,140.12) and Labour MPs Sarah Champion (£193,085.83) and Chuka Umunna (£192,170.91).

Not bad. Exactly what does she do for it. She’s gone very quiet about her block vote rioting in town Saturday.

Maybe Sarah Champion would like to give a detailed breakdown to the advertiser and tell us all just what benefit this cost to the tax payer has benefited the good people of Rotherham who voted for her ??

Caven,
All the details are available for download on the IPSA website: http://www.parliamentary-standards.org.uk/ .
Ms Champion’s justification for the expenditure can be found on her twitter feed – which is linked to from here on Rothpol.
The one exceptional item in her expenses would appear to be the costs involved in employing Jayne Senior for a year – see: https://rotherhampolitics.wordpress.com/2014/10/15/is-this-good-news-at-last/ .

So Sarah Champion is one of George Orwell’s Animal farm pigs. How does Dennis Skinner manage to get by on a paltry 50K. Shame on Sarah and exactly what I expected from her.

She is only serving for another 5 years, got to make the most of it while it’s there. Did you expect any better from a Labour politician!!!

I don’t trust any politician Labour, Conservative or Liberal, even the new intake are just as bad as the rest. How can they reject assisted suicide with the right safe guards in place?

Now she can truly call herself a socialist and an MP and deserves a double barrelled name, perhaps:
