Expensive expenses

IT must be almost six months since an expenses scandal ‘rocked’ (copyright Daily Telegraph) the political classes.

The Northern Ireland Assembly has published what our MLAs have been spending taxpayers’ money on.

To say the least it shows a lack of imagination if the funkiest expense was a walnut desk….where were the expense claims for duck houses or the pruning of hedges.

MLAs...please try harder in the future to come up with ridiculous expenditures to keep indignant leader writers in a job.
