"It's completely idiot-proof."<br /><br />idiot proof - that is a nice way of describing what the complete idiots who devised it delivered up - a "new, fairer system" which was going to "save substantial amounts" and which said idiots were told, including by members of the Upper House who actually possess a working brain cell or two, quite loudly, was certainly not "going to save substantial sums" but was "going to cost even more" because, as was quite evident, by bringing in a "fixed rate, flat all day payment" which "took into account certain allowances that previously had to be claimed" meant that quite a lot of members of the Upper House started being paid, automatically and every day they attended, allowances they had previously never claimed. And guess what, at the end of the first year of the new "goign to reduce costs system" it was discovered costs had risen by about a third - immediately prompting all the complete f-wits who had devised it to go around saying "how has this happened !"<br /><br />Like I said, no wonder he was grinning - he no longer has to go to the lengths of falsifying claims, the new system will see him get more than before, without him having to do anything more than just turn up ...he doesn't even have to spend much time in the chamber - he could spend most of it in the tea rooms if he liked ..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
