MPs are no more entitled to expenses, than any other public sector worker.
Office and Staff expenses should be dealt with by a parliamentary body, not MPs themselves. Establish a Office Holders Authority OHA who deal with all politicians admin and are an accountable public body

2/ An OHA would ensure all MPs offices are run cost effectively in the taxpayer's interest.
No more jobs for mates at raised prices. No more £450 fans because your MP has no shame.
Every MP gets the same cost effective product for the job.

3/ Also, a building close Parliament should be sourced and then fitted out with accommodation for MPs who are attending for parliament.
A small amount to stay would be paid by MPs, just like soldiers have to in the army.
Family units & a crèche should be available.

4/ In short:
•Establish an Office Holders Authority (OHA) to oversee, run & provide MP's offices with necessary goods & services.
• End 2nd home allowance & procure a building for standard accommodation, which MPs pay for.
• All MP's staff to be Civil Servants.
