The word is 'irony', Bart!

Now this is my kind of dodgy expense claim. Neither too greedy (which makes me angry at the MP) nor too hyped (which makes me angry at the press), but Just Right:

George Osborne, the shadow chancellor, claimed £47 [of taxpayers' money] for two copies of a DVD of his own speech on 'Value for Taxpayers' Money'.

The ironing is delicious!
