How Tories Squander Your Money

[Hymie]

Not that long ago, there was a post on AB about Labour’s Hounslow council spending almost £50k on a rainbow zebra-crossing.

To give a balanced view, this article is about the Tory government wasting £358 million (over 7,000 times more than Hounslow council).

At least the residents of Hounslow got a rainbow zebra-crossing for their money.

Within the AB thread on Hounslow council spending money on a rainbow zebra-crossing, there were 23 replies – none of them in support of the Labour council wasting money.

There are currently 3 replies to this thread, all in support of the Tories wasting your money – I wonder how many more it will get?

Hymie, the pandemic was an unprecedented event, almost like a war, if you like. What proof do you have that Labour (or anyone else for that matter) would have handled it better?
Ill answer that for you......zero.

Using an unquantifiable argument to have a go at the Cons is a cheap shot. Even for you.

Hounslow Council was clearly a politically motivated obvious waste of money ...the vaccine one was a investment gamble that didn't pay off but when the investments were made it was known some would hopefully pay off big time and some wpuld'nt

There's better examples of Tory waste you could of used like police commisioners or ppe contracts to forms with no experience or not tackling rubber dinghy migrants

“To give a balanced view…”

The delicious irony of those five words is fantastic, although I doubt it will register.

That's a lot of money being laundered via the Con Crony Club.
