So the Foreign Secretary decides to employ ( with our money ) not one, but three special advisers, at a total cost of ninety thousands pounds Sterling - per year. Here's me thinking - that we live in times of financial constraint - a constraint that will see thousands of workers laid off - one that will cut public services, the N.H.S. and the police force to the bone.
Yet here we have a Conservative cabinet minister, spending like there is no tomorrow. Fair enough, I suppose being a special adviser carries with it, some degree of responsibility ( serving the country )
However try applying for a thirty thousand a year job with the local authority ( without any previous experience ) How far would you get ? Yet when it comes to our Foreign Secretary Willie Hague, it appears no such requirements are necessary.
If I successfully applied to be a teacher for example, with no previous experience, and my pal happens to be the head of the education department. Then you as member of the paying public - should expect some answers - followed swiftly by the departure of the head. I suppose he did save some expensive rent boy's wages - by sharing a room with a special prostitute .
