Tory MP questioned over claims he forged £700 worth of expenses invoices

Expenses: Chris Davies.

Chris Davies is my local MP. He was quick to libel me when the accusations of anti-Semitism against me first gained press attention – now claims that he forged his expenses are coming to a head.

It will be interesting to see what the outcome says about Mr Davies’ honesty and integrity.

Police have questioned a Tory MP over claims he forged £700 worth of expenses invoices.

Chris Davies, who is a ministerial aide, spoke voluntarily to the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) on Tuesday, after being referred by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) over a claim for pictures for his constituency office.

It is understood that he is accused of manually creating two invoices for £450 and £250 rather than submitting the full £700 claim by computer.

He has previously said that he repaid the £450 sum, which was charged to a start-up fund for new MPs to set up offices.

Letters seen by the Mail on Sunday claimed that one of the invoices was for furniture – but it was claimed to be from a photography firm.

In a summary of the allegations in a letter from Conservative Party HQ, it said it appeared he was “concerned the invoice may be rejected as excessive” and he “fabricated” it through as two smaller ones instead.

    I suppose in mitigation he can claim that he is a Tory and all Tories are cheats and fraudsters.

    Typical greedy Tory he’s been a Tory for a while & is still learning all the tricks of the trade.
    Anyone else such as me would probably go to prison.. To me it’s theft..

    come on a Tory MP fabricating something surely that’s the norm if every Tory who fabricated something was prosecuted the courts would be jammed to overflowing and then we might have a chance of legal aid being restored they would find a way to fiddle that the thieving rats
