Gordon Brown worst offender in MPs' expenses scam

London, Feb. 5 (ANI): British Prime Minister Gordon Brown has been exposed as the worst cabinet offender in the MPs' expenses scandal, with 21,189.53 pounds claimed from taxpayers cash as cleaning costs.

Communities and Local Government Minister John Denham, Children, Schools and Families Secretary Ed Balls and his wife, Work and Pensions Secretary Yvette Cooper.
