First Class Travel

Parliament has announced plans to stop paying for MPs to travel first-class - but apparently this has caused fury amongst some honourable members.

But why should public money be used to treat MPs better than everyone else? - this is a reform that's welcome and long overdue.

Let's hope the new arrangements extend to the House of Lords - and to other forms of travel as well.

Because flying people around the world on business class - and putting them up in fancy hotels - is another Spanish practice that must end - particularly with the economy in such a mess.

As some who travels by train regularly - I can vouch for the fact that it is perfectly possible to work and deal with papers and documents - in standard or economy class.
