Re: Expenses, expenses...

Re: Expenses, expenses...

Sadly for them, I think the general public rate politicans down there with estate agents and used car salesmem, in the league of trustworthiness.

Re: Expenses, expenses...

No one is 'getting stick' for using the F.O.I. to find out the expenses of all H.B.C. councillors.

I know the forum rules very well, and can't think of any I've broken other than thread wandering, as I pointed out, and which we are both doing now, by the way.;)
