they had falsely claimed expenses while on official business. The case

Quotes of the Week
"It is strange that these members who are often seen in the
hallways of the Sejm, had time to do so much travelling around the
world. It is also difficult to understand how you can afford to do some
one thousand kilometres by car in two days. Pragmatics tells me that it
is impossible. And what for, if you can get to London from virtually
every airport in one and a half hours. Why take a day or two to go there
by car? "
