For a country that is apparantly broke I wonder how much it costs us to host all the pomp, vceremony and tradition that goes with the Queens speach???

I wondered that too James, and saw the item on the news about expenses again!  I think we are all being taken for suckers but how we retaliate I don't know!

lol... it says on the news that he has been forced to apologise !!!! FORCED  !!!! , and I wonder exactly what he is sorry for ...stealing our money ...or getting caught  ? He will be paying back thousands of pounds , I wonder if the police take such a laid back no interest view with repeat habitual burglars , or shop lifters ?

Ever since this debacle came to light Is there any of them in our employ that is not at it or is it a case of they have not been found out yet.I mean to say sack the buggers make them pay back double what they have fiddled.Fine have we anything better to replace them with How much would it reduce the National Debt?It's bloody peanuts in the Grand Scheme of things would the likes of us be able to do similar with the same consequences if we got caught? As they seem to get. No chance, an example would be made of you or I. ??? ??? >:( >:( or is it :o :( :farmer:

Nick Clegg ...Mr Snow White himself .... seems to have been at it while an MEP ....YES ..he was one for 4 years , I think it was  , and he would have us in the EU all the way given half a chance. I am not sure of all the details , as MEP's don't have to provide ANY receipts at all for their expenses , and if you think former UK MP's get huge expenses and fiddle them to the hilt ... then you will be completely shocked at the amount MEP's claim !!!
There are though , many in the 'NEW' government  of the former UK , who got caught with their hand stuck firmly in the cookie jar , with a huge amount of money clenched tightly in their sticky little fingers.... Transparent government ? about as transparent as a brick wall to a blind man !!!
