British transport minister Simon Burns lives out of town .
Went to work on an official car with a driver.
It was recently discovered that in the year for such a trip is spent 80,000 pounds ( took him , by the way , not a Mercedes with a flashing light , and a modest , if not to " lohovskoy ", Toyota Avensis <! - ~ 1 ~ -> ). Citizens unhappy growth of railway tariffs, began to demand that the minister went to work on the train and come to know how much a pound is dashing . He was trying to justify the fact that the car worked on official documents. :D>
So , in the end the Minister now goes all the ( other ministers who live outside the city) by train.

Incidentally, in the course of this case have estimated that if the minister went to work not on the official car, a taxi, then it would not in the budget of 80 thousand pounds, and much cheaper - in 36tys .

Yes, England did the level of responsibility (accountability) officials for their actions close to the maximum, to a greater extent by the almost uncompromising and very independent press (even the Rupert Murdoch often powerless), especially yellow, particularly The Sun (thesun.co.uk ). Be sure to read every day. This is a powerful tool that can own (as shown by recent history) even affect the outcome of election campaigns, and accurate barometer of public opinion in England.

Of course, this is not the dissatisfaction related to the increase in railway tariffs. This wave of revelations of unscrupulous officials has lasted two years. And of course the phenomenon is exclusively political. Even my classmate was involved in a similar scandal. )))

Cyril, I hope you do not try to compare us and them. It is an exercise in futility. ))

Regarding the "booze", Churchill once aptly remarked when his colleague Bessie Braddock Winston announced that he was drunk:

"Yes, I am drunk, but tomorrow I will be sober, and you will still be a fool."

Yes , drunk sleep it off ...

I stopped drinking alcohol is also due to the understanding that it is a serious impact on mental ability. With limited use of it is not noticeable , but the effect still is. So Churchill is not quite right ... The recovery process is long enough ... In my estimation - not less than 3 years.
