I take a taxi occasionally, not often, but if the need arises. I just can't quite fathom this out...

In a memorandum, Mr Lyon said £4,139.17 had been spent on taxis by Mrs Martin over four years, mainly for shopping trips, and claimed back on expenses.
The Speaker's wife's shopping trips... ah, ok.
"The journeys taken met the necessary requirements of Mr Speaker to assist him in carrying out his official duties," he said in a memorandum to the Standards Committee.
So that's about 20 quid a week on Taxis, over the last four years... on shopping trips. Ok, if that's how your lifestyle determine's how you spend your disposabale income. But, really....
"Dear, I'm just popping out to Waitrose. D'you want anything? To assist you in your official duties, that is?"
