Parliamentary member dried private bills on the taxpayer

Apparently, there were no limits to creativity when Lars Boje Mathiesen previously headed the party’s credit card.

According to internal documents from the New Citizens, to which the Freedom Letter has accessed, it now used the former parliamentary member party’s funds on, among other things, underwear, a tuxedo and a MacBook – as well as unknown items from the construction market Jem & Fix.

It writes BT

The internal statement to the party’s main board states that there were private purchases that should never have ended up at the party’s expense.

« The expenses had a private character and were about a MacBook, underwear, a tuxedo and other things that could not be identified in the bad picture that Lars Boje Mathiesen submitted as documentation, » the statement reads.

The story starts in the spring of 2023, when Boje Mathiesen, who was still a member of the New Civilian, submitted a bill of DKK 35,848 to cover the purchases. According to the documents, the amount was paid by mistake.

More than a year before demanding the payment, he had been delivered to the Macbook to his private address-despite the fact that the Folketing had already made IT equipment available for his political work.
