Eric Illsley claims he was a scapegoat for expenses scandal

Former Labour MP is released from jail and says his treatment was inconsistent with that of David Laws The former Labour MP Eric Illsley, who was jailed in February for wrongly claiming £14,500 in expenses, has been released, highlighting differences between his treatment and that of the former Lib Dem cabinet minister David Laws. Within hours of leaving jail, Illsley made pugnacious comments about his imprisonment, comparing it to the treatment of Laws. Laws is to be suspended from parliament for seven days but will ultimately be allowed to carry on with his career. Leaving prison on Friday Illsley said he had been made a scapegoat. A year-long inquiry ruled that Laws “seriously and extensively” broke the rules to claim rent which was paid to his partner over a period of seven years. He has already paid back nearly £60,000 and was forced to apologise to the Commons. In February, Illsley pleaded guilty to three charges of false accounting, admitting to dishonestly claiming payments for insurance, repairs, utility bills and council tax at his second home between 2005 and 2008. Speaking at his home in Pogmoor, the former MP for Barnsley told Radio 5 Live: “It does seem rather strange that I have done that and then the next person who was found to have broken the rules in relation to expenses is simply allowed to carry on with his career by apologising to the House. “I ask the question, why couldn’t I have been taken the same way?” “What a lot of people didn’t know, and still don’t know, is that only a handful of MPs were ever investigated. My case didn’t allow me to highlight the fact that I hadn’t done anything different from a lot of other MPs who had simply kept their heads down and carried on with their careers and were quite happy to see me as a scapegoat.” Illsley went to jail for claiming on a second home £100 more per week than he was entitled to, over a three-year period. He will serve out the rest of his 12-month sentence under home curfew. Eric Illsley MPs’ expenses David Laws House of Commons guardian.co.uk

WaPo Highlights Liberal Catholic Professors Slamming Speaker Boehner

On Thursday, Washington Post religion reporter Michelle Boorstein publicized a letter from liberal Catholic professors insisting that House Speaker John Boehner was a poorly formed Catholic: Three days before House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) is scheduled to deliver the commencement address at Catholic University, dozens of faculty at Catholic colleges — including many from the university — have written to the Catholic speaker, criticizing him for having a record “among the worst in Congress” on protecting the poor. Here’s the kind of story The Washington Post doesn’t do – Catholic University having a booth at

NaClBox brings DOS-based gaming to Chrome along with sweet, sweet nostalgia

Now that Angry Birds has come to Chrome , none of us have any reason to leave the house. But if you like your games closer to 1fps, NaClBox may be more your speed. The Chrome-only emulator revives such DOS-based classics as The Secret of Monkey Island , Falcon 3.0 , and Alone In the Dark . Most are demos, meant to show off the browser’s Native Client potential and tug the heartstrings of retro-gamers . And we’ll admit getting a little misty at stepping back into the blocky shoes of Guybrush Threepwood — but maybe even more so at the bleepy-bloopy Soundblaster-era soundrack.

Professors At Catholic Colleges Tell John Boehner: Your Budget Fails To Uphold Church Moral Teachings

enlarge Despite the efforts of the past two popes to purge the church’s ranks of liberals, there are still Catholics who believe in the teachings of social justice and they’re calling out John Boehner on his faux Catholicism: House Speaker John A. Boehner, a Republican who grew up in a devout Roman Catholic family in Ohio, is scheduled to give the commencement address this Saturday at the Catholic University of America in Washington, a prestigious venue in church circles for its affiliation with the nation’s bishops. But now Mr. Boehner is coming in for a dose of the same kind of harsh criticism previously leveled at some Democrats — including President Obama — who have been honored by Catholic universities: the accusation that his policies violate basic teachings of the Catholic church. More than 75 professors at Catholic University and other prominent Catholic colleges have written a pointed letter to Mr. Boehner saying that the Republican-supported budget he shepherded through the House of Representatives will hurt the poor, elderly and vulnerable, and therefore he has failed to uphold basic Catholic moral teaching. “Mr. Speaker, your voting record is at variance from one of the Church’s most ancient moral teachings,” the letter says. “From the apostles to the present, the Magisterium of the Church has insisted that those in power are morally obliged to preference the needs of the poor . Your record in support of legislation to address the desperate needs of the poor is among the worst in Congress. This fundamental concern should have great urgency for Catholic policy makers. Yet, even now, you work in opposition to it.”
