Lord Taylor found guilty of fiddling his parliamentary expenses

[Barman]

Lord Taylor of Warwick falsely claimed for travel and overnight subsistence, a jury at Southwark Crown Court decided by a majority of 11 to one.

The 58-year-old told the House of Lords members' expenses office that his main residence was in Oxford, when he lived in west London.

Taylor is the first parliamentarian to be tried and found guilty by a jury over the expenses scandal.

Lord Taylor stood impassively in the dock as the guilty verdict on all six counts was delivered.

The jury took just over five hours to reach the verdict.

Hang him!
