Disgraced ex-minister Elliot Morley jailed for claiming £30,000 in bogus mortgage expenses | Mail Online

Former Cabinet minister Elliot Morley wept yesterday as he was jailed for 16 months for committing the biggest fraud in the parliamentary expenses scandal.

The ex-Labour MP swindled more than £31,000 for mortgage payments from the public purse.
Morley, 58, was the first ex-minister to be imprisoned over the huge political controversy and the fifth Parliamentarian to be convicted.
