Well he might have become the invisible man but Gordon Brown still has his hands deep within our pockets by grabbing £20,000 in travel expenses which are only supposed to be claimed if you're going from your constituency to Westminster to do your job when the records show he's only been there three times in the period claimed.
Telegraph.

Gordon Brown has spent nearly £20,000 of his parliamentary expenses on flying between London and Edinburgh, despite rarely appearing in the House of Commons.
Rules allow MPs to claim for the cost of travelling between London and their constituency homes if they are on parliamentary business.
However the former prime minister has only spoken in the Commons on three occasions since May 2010.
Mr Brown has also participated in only 15 per cent of parliamentary votes since the 2010 election, according to an analysis by the politics website publicwhip.co.uk.
In all, he has claimed £19,237 in parliamentary expenses on air travel between London and Edinburgh between June 29 2010 and Jan 23, 2012.

You can imagine what any other employer in the land outside the public services would say to that sort of claim and work attendance. You'd be looking at the sack and probably facing a police enquiry. Nor I suspect is Gordon brown the only one still at it, though as yet proof is yet to appear. Still it should not really come as such a surprise that those who have their hands on our cash and run the expenses system they have to suit themselves don't see anything wrong with robbing us blind.
All that the expenses scandal of the previous years has done is to take us back to square one, they're still thieves and still utterly dishonourable.
We should hang them all.
