A mock council of Europe for a mock democracy.

A fitting tribute?

how much is this waste of time costing me?

[JaiLearnsPhysics]

I would like to argue that point.

Firstly - I was there and I found it an extremely good use of our time and found it was a good event, well organised, to engage the youth in modern international politics. It was effective in motivating us to become involved in politics and I dare say that many people that attended will end up in government.

Secondly - I would like to question why you are browsing videos like this one when you clearly are just trying to pick a fight and

[JaiLearnsPhysics]

generally waste peoples time.

And finally - Let us consider the cost of the day and your "wasted money". Perhaps 500 pounds in foor and drink and then a normal days work for the attending staff. This is a small price to pay when we consider other government spending that we would both prehaps agree could have been put to better use e.g. the DWP which has shelved 2 IT projects costing 3 million over 5 years.

So are you still sure you want to conplain about the spending of maybe a few hundred pounds on a project that was actually benificial to many people when quite clearly there are greater wastes you could be complaining about.

Thanks.

i bet there were many man-hours of the taxpayers wasted, that could used, like getting our troops out of mr bliars war.

Almost nothing, so get back to your Daily Mail and don't worry your little head.

lol, i read the guardian! it doesn't matter whether u are left wing or right wing, its a waste of money.

[JaiLearnsPhysics]

yea but comon. Karen Matthews brought about a police case costing 3 Million of taxpayers money. Were never gunna get that back are we. Put some perspective on it. I do agree with you about the war though.

but i suppose it resulted in a conviction as she was guilty, would have been worse if she wasn't!
