Spending watchdog boss takes £464 chauffeur-driven Mercedes to meeting... on how to SAVE money


The head of a Government spending watchdog paid out £464 for a chauffeur-driven Mercedes to take him to a conference on ... saving public money. Anthony Snow ordered the limo for the 290-mile journey for a meeting with auditors from around Britain to check on how taxpayer’s cash is spent.


Mr Snow claimed the £464 expenses as chief operating officer for the Wales Audit Office where his job was to check on how £20billion is used. The 51-year-old civil servant was able to 'self-authorise' his expenses claim for the chauffered car for the luxury trip. He got in the vehicle in Asaph, North Wales, to travel in style to the auditor’s public spending meeting in Poole, Dorset.


The conference was called 'More For Less - Meeting The Challenges Of A Changed Environment' for top Government auditors from across Britain.

The article goes onto say that he has since left his job and is being given a big payout.

GIVE ME STRENGTH... it goes on and on and on. How do you get a job like that? What does the advert say?? Greedy bent f*ckers who know how to thrust their snouts in the trough need only apply. Again I have to say it - couldn't you just smash the w*nker's face in!

Rant over.
