This happy looking couple, Sir Nicholas and Ann Winterton the conservative MPs, are to stand down at the next election to spend 'more time with their family'.
That will be the family who had a London flat put in trust in their names and then their father and mother claimed more that £80,000 in rent for it through their MP expenses. Expenses submitted by Sir Nicholas show he claimed £41,508 in rent and his wife's claims amounted to £41,584.
I wonder if the electorate of Macclesfield (Sir Nicholas) and Congleton (Ann Winterton) will be shedding any tears.

GOOD RIDDANCE.........to be honest I do not approve of any husband and wife MPs Can't see how they can do a proper job for their constituents or their families.
The Wintertons are though an thoroughly Odious couple (even for the conservatives)
Niko I don't often agree with you but this type of person shouldn't have been representing anyone. They must talk a good talk which is a sad reflection on any political party.
The establishment of the past is only now just letting go. The new order that replaced them in the form of New Liebore has and remains the most "odious" in history. Their incompetent arrogance makes the Wintertons seem almost acceptable. As for The Balls, need I go on?
Furthermore, none of the thieving Labour crowd have yet had the slightest reprimand. At least the Conservatives are cleaning out the stables, even if the horses have bolted with their ill gotten spoils.
Um! did Oldrightie have an apoplexy
reading my post?(Good) I strongly suspect he did.
I bagsy the right if Independence does come to fruition to await Oldrightie coming to the border.
And me being the one to shut the gate on him 'Slam' and locking him out of Scotland.......
The dear sweet Winterton pigs. Don't they make a lovely couple; so pink and fat. I bet they have lovely curly tails....
It couldn't have happened to nicer people: no I lied, it could have, but it didn't.
I'd like to take this opportunity to wish them a very retirement.
Just checking that 'tear' count. Nope. Still at zero... (Sniff.)
SR,
Outrageous they need to be done for fraud, I, like many, are sick to the back teeth of these scum.
I agree that Labour heads need to start rolling and Lib dems and anyone else that can be proven to be a trougher.
I predict a riot!
Crazy D
Oldrightie, indeed the tories are being seen to do something and indeed labour need to get cleaned up too, but will they?
Oh dear Niko, Oldrightie is lovely and don't you dare say anything to the contrary.
Phone Gordon and get him moving. Has he gone into hiding as usual?
Tris I'm sure they'll make a handsome income out of posturing on the English stage - being a Sir and his lady after all.
Oh Mek, surely you found just one person, not even one? Oh dear but I'm not surprised.
CD, at least some conservatives seem to realise the game's up. What's wrong with labour and the libdems?
Water, water, everywhere, nor any drop to greet...
I'm sure they'll both manage to squeeze out a few drops at their farewell bash Mek although the may be elephant ones or should that be crocodile.
