But hey-ho we haven't got anything else to do with our hard earned money have we!
The Wick council offices cost £8 million to serve under 30 thousand people. £266 a head.
The Scottish Parliament cost £414 million to serve 5.3 million. £78 a head.
The palace of Westminster cost of £3 Billion to serve 64.1 million people. £47 a head.
Just saying.............
