William Hague is indeed concerned at Government spending which it was disclosed that Tony Blair and his family over a year, including officers' wages, are estimated to have cost taxpayers over 6 million pounds.
Taxpayers have every right to be up in arms at this ridiculous expenditure.
We must face it, British politicians are not in as much danger (assassination-wise) as U.S. politicians. The closest they are likely to come to being assassinated is being 'swarmed' by a bunch of illiterate 'hoodies' demanding a few 'squid' for some 'merrybwana', Red Bull and Voddie.
Are British politicians worth it? The answer is 'No'. All they need are water pistols, fully-loaded, to fire at these louts who try to 'come at them' and they'll run a mile.
As for the findings that some of British politicians bodyguards are paying over a pound for their sweets, well, they should start shopping at Morrisons instead of Sainsbury's or Harrods.
Bodyguards often dine in particularly expensive restaurants such as the Borneo resort's well known Glow restaurant and the Kemiri restaurant,ordering and enjoying such dishes as lamb fillet, pork belly and tenderloin.
What is wrong with a couple of sandwiches, good old fish and chips, which are now to be found worldwide as a result of adventurous Brits. venturing abroad to open restaurants, or Big Macs, courtesy of the McDonalds' franchizes which are popping up everywhere, including the Gobi Desert?
It's time the British Government got a grip on their spending. The National debt could easily be halved if the above suggestions were put into practise.
