MP becomes ‘frequent-flyer’

(Lancaster Telegraph): An East Lancashire MP has been labelled Westminster’s most “frequent flyer” after clocking up numerous free trips around the world. Nigel Evans who also visited the Cayman Islands last year has also travelled to Hong Kong, Malaysia and Kenya in recent years – all funded by taxpayers or third parties.

Evans is currently chairing a climate change conference in Tanzania.
