Mr Eugenides reports on the latest attempt by our elected overlords to quietly bury the amounts of our money they spunk away on their own perks. I think his concise yet irate comments sum up the issue effectively:

Let's make this clear; if you are furnishing your home with my money, then I demand to know how much is being spent on what. This is not a burdensome requirement; it is the basic fucking minimum I am entitled to expect. No agent of the gigantic state apparatus that these people have constructed to empty my pockets would accept my airy assurances in place of a receipt, so why should we accept it of them?

Quite; the government is quick to demand transparency from others, but they seem to think they are above the rules and above the law. And the more people who know about their blatant hypocrisy the better.

So pass the message on - politicians literally believe it is one rule for them, and one rule for the rest of us. And that, quite simply, is unacceptable. But politicians won't get this message until we start screaming it in their faces, and making it absolutely clear that this two-faced cuntish behaviour is not acceptable in spoilt children; so it sure as fuck ain't good enough in our supposed leaders.
