EXPENSES cheat ex-MP David Chaytor has landed a lowly job in prison - as a £10-a-week builder's labourer.
The former Labour high-flyer, who fiddled £20,000, now gets his hands dirty lifting breeze blocks.
Jailed ... David Chaytor
Chaytor, 61 - prison number A5285AZ - has swapped smart suits for a prison issue blue-grey uniform at D Category Spring Hill in Buckinghamshire.
He is the first MP jailed in the expenses scandal.
Chaytor was fast-tracked out of tough HMP Wandsworth two weeks into an 18-month sentence to the "cushy" nick. The ex-Bury North MP works from 9.15pm until 4.15pm before a shower and evening meal. He gets £2 a day and pays 50p to rent a TV.
Chaytor is helping to build a classroom for lags. A source said: "People were narked off that an MP got stuck here right away as it's only for those ending their sentences who have earned it."
Chaytor admitted false accounting at Southwark Crown Court last month.:laugh:
