My main man Wayne is racking up those frequent flyer miles and taxpayer-paid expenses with nothing to show in return – again.
Just more ‘milking the almost empty cash cow’.
There is no routes between Florida and Bermuda.
Just another free jaunt.
Sick.
Another wasted trip
I have always been a great one for sayings
Pack up your old kit bag and smile ! smile! smile!
Shipping coal to Newcastle !
Cruise ships, they come and they go!
Did not see that one in the budget!
Try a virtual and artificial virtual conferance next time!
A committee designed the camel!
The top of hit parade Money ! Money !Money !
Money burns a hole in mens pockets!
Don’t forget your bathing suits its 105 down there!
This is going to cost the taxpayer a bundle !
