Hardly “saint-like”:
Bone qualified as a chartered accountant in 1976. In 1995, Bone was described as Britain’s “meanest boss” by the Daily Mirror when he defended paying a 17-year-old trainee at Palm Travel (West) 87p an hour, equivalent to £1.78 in 2021.
In the 2005 general election, Bone ousted Labour MP Paul Stinchcombe in Wellingborough with a majority of 687 votes.
Early on in his career he was described as one of the most active MPs in Parliament, in terms of Questions asked and other contributions. However, the quality of those interventions was questioned in a 2006 article in The Times about the Theyworkforyou website. Bone was one of three MPs specifically alleged to have “boosted their ratings on the internet by saying very little, very often.” Among his 109 speeches was one which ran to three short sentences (standing up for Royal Mail in that a sub-postmaster in Little Irchester had the only business in the village). He regularly referenced his then wife “Mrs Bone” in questions to the Prime Minister’s Questions.
Although Bone was not mentioned in the 2009 Legg Report that was central to the official investigation into the United Kingdom parliamentary expenses scandal and therefore was not one of the 343 MPs required to pay back any money, he was subject to some later reports relating to his expenses. He was one of 32 MPs who claimed the maximum allowance of £4,800 a year for food in 2010 and came under investigation in 2014 for expenses claims relating to the upkeep of his second home. In 2016 he was criticised for using the government’s help-to-buy scheme, which was meant to help young first time buyers, to buy himself a new constituency home.
In February 2014, The Times newspaper reported that Bone had been under investigation by the police for the previous 12 months relating to an alleged £100,000 fraud concerning benefit payments of care home fees for his mother-in-law. Bone issued a lengthy statement denying fraud allegations. In March 2014 the Crown Prosecution Service said it had concluded that there was insufficient evidence to bring criminal charges.
Before they separated, Bone employed his wife, Jennie, as his executive secretary. In 2007–2008 he paid her “in the top bracket of up to £40,000” per annum. The practice of MPs employing family members has been criticised by some sections of the media as nepotism. Although MPs who were first elected in 2017 have been banned from employing family members, the restriction is not retrospective – meaning that Bone’s employment of his wife was lawful.
Bone is currently in a relationship with physiotherapist Helen Harrison, who has been his senior Parliamentary assistant since 2019
It seems that Bone has managed to stay just on the right side of the procedures and the law …

MPs have voted to suspend Peter Bone from the Commons for six weeks after an investigation found he had bullied and was sexually inappropriate around a former member of staff.
The Conservative Party had already withdrawn the whip from the MP, meaning he will not be able to stand for re-election as a Tory candidate and he currently sits as an independent.
If an MP is suspended for over 10 days due to misconduct, a recall petition is started. A by-election happens if at least 10% of local voters sign the petition, according to the Recall of MPs Act.
“Recall for Bone, Recall for Bone”

But when she leaned over, Rover took over, and gave her a bone of his own…

Sorry Cinders…I had to do it…
The petition was signed by 13.2% of eligible voters in the constituency, above the 10% threshold required for Mr Bone to lose his seat.
In a statement on X, formerly Twitter, Mr Bone said the majority of the electorate in the constituency had chosen not to sign the recall petition, describing the process as “bizarre”.
He said the allegations that led to the recall petition were “totally untrue and without foundation”.
“I will have more to say on these matters in the new year,” Mr Bone wrote.
That news has spoilt his Xmas … 
Doubt it. Does not look the type, a bone of contention possibly.
Hi
Peter Bone is a very arrogant obnoxious MP.
This is not a description which only applies to Conservative MPs however, Labour and Co also have such people in their ranks.
I am hoping, probably in vain, that a New Government will take a much harder line, in dealing with them.

The partner of ex-Conservative MP Peter Bone, Helen Harrison, has been selected to replace him as the Tory candidate in the Wellingborough by-election. (1)
Conservative Party chairman Richard Holden congratulated Ms Harrison on social media platform X, saying she had been selected at a “packed meeting of Conservative members” on Sunday afternoon.
Ms Harrison is a North Northamptonshire councillor where she represents the Oundle ward and sits on the Health and Wellbeing Board.
She previously ran for election to Parliament in 2017 in the Derbyshire constituency of Bolsover, attempted to unseat Labour veteran Dennis Skinner.
The by-election is not expected to be held before February.
Other candidates for the election include Gen Kitchen for Labour, Ana Savage Gunn for the Liberal Democrats, Will Morris for the Green Party and Ben Habib for Reform UK.
How convenient … and financially advantageous:
Winding-up budget
Financial support is also available through the ‘winding-up budget’ to former MPs following a general election either because they have not stood for election or because they have lost their seat at the election. It is also available to MPs who cease to be an MP during a Parliament.
The winding-up budget is designed to meet the costs of completing the outstanding parliamentary functions of former MPs. This includes the costs of closing down constituency offices.
Winding-up payment
MPs who lose their seats also receive a winding-up payment (different from the winding-up budget. The winding-up payment is calculated based on two months’ net salary and is intended to provide financial support to MPs while they are closing down their parliamentary affairs.
New MPs
The basic annual salary for an MP from 1 April 2023 is £86,584.
MPs also receive expenses to cover the costs of running an office, employing staff, having somewhere to live in London or their constituency, and travelling between Parliament and their constituency.
Good riddance. He’s a toad. Blamed the local government for its problems and ignored the massive central government funding cuts. Employed his wife at top allowable rate of £40k to be his secretary. Tried to get the August bank holiday re-named Margaret Thatcher day. Spoke up for the arse Chope when Chope blocked the bill against ‘up-skirting photos’. And voted for Truss to be PM. All which shows a man of ill-judgement.
Good luck to the bloke, he was probably set up because he cultivated opinions that the stuffy old boys club didn’t like.
