I wouldn't have minded seeing the inner workings though. The weights and counter-weights, wheels and cogs would be amazing. I'd love to have a sit down with that guy that was interviewed. What a great job.
Because its the British peoples tax money. So whilst it still makes good news (because all three of the mainstream political partys have made quite a cockup) i dont think that many other people care that much as its nothing to do with there money :D... im guessing that Associated Press is American.. never heard of them b4 ;p
Good point, it wouldn't be as alarming to an American as it is to the Brits, though once CBS Evening News had a story on the expenses and a few on CNN so I thought the AP would report to one up the competition.
lovely British craftmanship!

The building is named after the architect who designed it. His name was Ben. Imagine if his name was Richard.

I may be nitpicking here but if the AP has a fully staffed buarueu in Britian why no coverage on the MP expense row.
