James Wharton MP

Lots of emails today about an article in the Evening Gazette regarding the Labour MP.  Apparently she is going to pay out of her own pocket to have her house repaired, and has written to residents telling them that this is the case!  A number of her neighbours have asked whether the letters and postage were paid for from her allowances, I am afraid I do not know but the whole thing strikes me as very odd.  I cannot help but feel she should be focussing on more important things, such as unemployment in Stockton South which continues to rise at a frightening rate.
