No Expenses Spared
The inside story of the scoop which changed the face of British politics
– by the team that broke it
Bantam Press ( 2009)
No Expenses Spared is the gripping behind-the-scenes account by two of the Daily Telegraph’s top reporters, of how, month by month, the newspaper exposed the MPs’ expenses scandal during 2008 and 2009. Their relentless outpouring of revelations of greed and corruption, led to the resignation of the Speaker and several Cabinet ministers, dealing a terminal blow to Gordon Brown’s prime-ministership, much as the Profumo scandal brought the Macmillan Government to its knees in 1963.
