I came across a great post today on the Politics Watch Blog.

The writers there drew my attention to a fact that hadn’t yet crossed my mind, not only is George Galloway getting a fee from appearing in Big Brother, but every day he is there he is also earning an MPs salary paid for by US!

People feel so strongly about this waste of public resources that some kind soul has even set up a website that estimates exactly how much George Galloways holiday is costing us.

Now I don’t know about you, but I certainly could think of better things to do with my money than pay that chancer to sit on his bum for two weeks oogling Jodie Marsh.
