Sure it is love..

She's receiving more than many people earn a year as a housing allowance for accommodation she gets for free.. You gotta love how quick these socialists line their pockets as soon as the opportunity arises.

Home Secretary Jacqui Smith has denied breaking any rules by claiming "second home" expenses for the house she shares with her husband and children.

Ms Smith can claim up to £24,000 a year for that house in Redditch because she has told the Commons her sister's house in London is her main residence.

Ms Smith stays at her sister's home when she is London - normally Monday to Thursday - the Mail on Sunday reports.
The newspaper says that Ms Smith has claimed more than £116,000 in second home expenses - known as the Additional Costs Allowance - over several years.

She gets more house allowance than most people earn in a year. That can't be right surely?
