This is only the tip of the problem - the H of C bars and restaurants are all subsdised by the taxpayer. I believe the total amount runs into millions.
Oh, it's less than a penny per year to each taxpayer, right?
People who complain about their dinners are all potential Serial Killers, its only a small step from complaining about you dinner and murdering your spouse with a hammer.
I wish my employer paid for my lunch. A fiver would do.
Spoiled brats.
If I'm send away on a course or aked to work away from my usual office my company does pay for my breakfast, lunch and dinner. Are you sure you company doesn't do this?

Fine for the private sector but this is taxpayers money.

Do you get 65-85k for part time work, and does you sustenance come from the tax payer. People working for big profit making companies should stop comparing their expenses with that of a millionaire like IDS claiming for breakfast and cocktails'. These people are forcing austerity on the tax payer while they grab fistfuls of cash.
Good, I'm glad they're whinging. Our politicians are self-serving, overfed parasites who don't give a damn about the electorate. Loving the earlier comment which said most of them look like they live off of McDonald's fare anyway.
If they don't like it then go find work elsewhere because I'm pretty sure there are plenty of people capable of doing their job at half the rate and willing to pay for their own food at that.

For a certain value of 'work for us'.
Yup, that explains Pickles!

because they're worth it
because mp's need to eat.
Unless I'm much mistaken they are just like the rest of us. And earn enough to pay for their own food.
if you take away their free food they'll want a payrise.
Let them want. I've had a four year pay freeze and not even allowed a free cup of tea in a meeting.
If I work in the evening I pay for my own food. Why shouldn't they?
And why should the tax payer pay, for them eating most people buy there food out of there wages
No they want both

Speaking about MPs being paid too much and all that - lol no.
Cut MPs pay and all you're doing is ensuring only the rich become MPs.
