Two Tory health ministers are being chauffeured around at a cost of £77,000 a year - despite the Government's vow to cut the use of limos.Simon Burns has been driven to his Chelmsford constituency home 154 times in the last year, setting taxpayers back £41,384. And Anne Milton has been ferried to her Guildford constituency 134 times, with a £36,334 bill.
After the election, ministers vowed to use public transport more to slash the £10million-a-year cost of the Government's car fleet. But the pair got around the rules by saying they work on classified papers while travelling. Labour transport spokesman Maria Eagle said: "Talk of getting ministers out of their limos and on to public transport was all hot air."
Right everybody after me "We are all in this together"
