Top of the Pops
Eric Joyce - Labour MP for Falkirk - has again come 'top of the pops' over his MP's expenses claims.
Eric Joyce was the only MP to claim more than £200,000 in 2009/10 - and in fact his total claims came to an eye watering £200,986 - five years after making a public pledge to cut back.
But this is not the first time Joyce has come top of the list - since making that pledge - he made the highest claims of any Westminster MP in 2008 as well.
In the past Joyce has been criticised over making claims for works of art for his office - but what's not clear is why his expenses claims are so much higher than other Scottish MPs.
Joyce - a former army officer - resigned from his Labour Northern Ireland brief last year - after being found guilty of drink driving.
Not much of a role model - in my opinion.
