"Squandered" by David Craig

I bought this book yesterday, it is lovingly researched and totally gruesome and I warmly recommend it to all.

My favourite page is page 88, on which he lists all the quangos that Nulab invented to deal with education; the list is a whole page long.

It all confirms my long-held assumption that at least 20% of government spending, i.e. £100 billion per annum, is waste, pure and simple.
