Lib Dem Paul Burstow tops the 'MP League Table'
Liberal Democrat MPs are better value for money than their Labour or Conservative colleagues, according to a report by the Evening Standard.
Four out of the top five places in the 'MP League Table' went to Liberal Democrat MPs. Paul Burstow Lib Dem MP for Sutton & Cheam took first place, followed by Vince Cable (Lib Dem - Twickenham) and Tom Brake (Lib Dem - Carshalton & Wallington). All three MPs achieved a five-star rating.
Croydon Central's Labour MP Geriant Davies achieved a dismal one-star rating after coming 65th out of the 73 London MPs in the league table. His Conservative colleague for Croydon South, Richard Ottaway, only managed to come one place higher in 64th place.
The league table was based on a number of factors including - expenses claimed, attendance in House of Commons votes and written questions asked.
