Two SNP MPs among dozens found to be claiming Amazon Prime back on expenses.
Two SNP MPs are among a number of elected officials found to have charged their Amazon Prime subscriptions to the taxpayer in the last 18 months.
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority , which handles MPs’ expense claims, has previously stated Prime subscriptions can be within the rules, but “the MP will need to justify that the subscription is primarily used for parliamentary purposes at the time they submit the claim”.Mr Bonnar submitted a claim for £7.99, listed as “Amazon Prime”, but he told the Sunday Mirror it was a one-off purchase of stationery, not a subscription charge, and that the value was a coincidence.
