MPs' expenses: Tory MP Jonathan Djanogly claimed almost £5,000 for automatic gates
Jonathan Djanogly, the multi-millionaire shadow business minister, claimed almost £5,000 to have automatic gates installed at his large home in his Huntingdon constituency.
Mr Djanogly's monthly gardening bill was about £400, although extra amounts were also submitted. The Conservative MP also claimed £13,962 for cleaning and £12,951 for gardening at his second home, which did not have a mortgage, in just four years.
The scale of the claims, which are likely to be regarded as excessive by ordinary taxpayers, is certain to infuriate David Cameron. |
