New "cash for" enquiry?

It seems Labour is trying its best to ensure the Conservatives are brought under the “cash for” light of sleaze.

Several Conservative MPs, including Shadow Cabinet members, have been reported to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards over their use of House of Commons dining rooms by two Labour MPs.

The rules state that dining rooms cannot be used for "direct financial or material gain" by parties, sponsors, or any person or group.

Whether Conservative MPs have been breaking the rules or not will be for any inquiry by the Parliamentary Commissioner to decide. It will be interesting of course to find out if any similar activities have been undertaken by Labour MPs.

I very much doubt hiring out dining rooms raises as much cash as selling peerages though.
