Kelly’s rules OK

Have just had a very quick read of the Kelly recommendations on MP expenses. Most of the biggies have already been in the public domain via leaks: renting flats in future, no relatives and so on. Even in a quick read - it looks like Kelly has nailed it in terms of ensuring that MPs act with probity and that never again can public money be used inappropriately, criminally or flagrantly.

There's a statement at 12.30pm by Harriet Harman - and I hope that all MPs take the medicine because it is the very stringency of the recommendations and us swallowing them whole that will perhaps enable the public to have some confidence in the future.
