What’s wrong with bike cash?
From: Jeremy Fletcher, Vicar, Beverley Minster.
TOM RICHMOND takes some MPs to task for claiming mileage expenses for their bicycles (The Yorkshire Post, March 22).
All the time I have been in ministry in the Church of England there has been such a system for cyclists. I’ve never made use of it myself, but it’s there, and so it should be. If a journey is made for business purposes, then its proper expenses should be met.
From: Mrs M Smith, Wellesley Avenue, Hull.
JUST because MPs can claim cycling expenses does not mean they should. No one is forcing them to – but it does appear some have still to learn from past mistakes.
