Up to 50 peers are regularly "clocking in" to the House of Lords in order to claim a £300 daily attendance allowance, a former Conservative peer has claimed.

This has been known for years. Many Tory peers were flying in from their tax havens signing in and then disappearing for board meetings and then flying home, with the daily allowance covering the flight or hotel bill.
