Quote:
Ex-Tory peer Lord Taylor of Warwick has been found guilty of making £11,277 in false parliamentary expenses claims.
The 58-year-old peer claimed travel costs between his Oxford home and Westminster, as well as subsistence for staying in London.
He claimed he had made the false claims "in lieu of a salary", and had been acting on the advice of colleagues.
