A Liberal expense scandal is just like warm milk: familiar, nostalgic and a little bit disgusting. Mmm, frothy…Already, the Liberals have developed a sort of formula for publicly dealing with these expense embarrassments. These figures are all perfectly acceptable until they are not, which only occurs when they show up in media reports instead of internal expense forms. The final step is to concede partial defeat, while championing the government’s commitment to transparency and leaving some details ambiguous. In any case, these are the steps to a proper Liberal expense scandal: feel free to follow along next time.
