The First Minister’s private office paid out an average of £1,800 per week on food and drink between May 2007, when he took power, and his re-election four years later. Mr Salmond ran up his highest annual bill of £115,542 – the equivalent of £316 per day – in the same financial year as the onset of the financial crisis, when thousands of families started struggling to make ends meet." link :- http://www.telegraph...tertaining.html Bloody hell, will the Scots be able to afford independence if it means they have to foot the bill?
