    What you have spotted: A constituent questions why Labour's Mr Cawsey claimed £69 for the cost of a breathalyser and £24 for a saliva screen test kit in 2007. The MP says the items were necessary for work-related purposes.

    Jacqui Smith claimed for 400kg (£82.50) of coal in 2005

    Is she starting her own power station?
