Scale down costs

Recently, from my MSP, I 
received a glossy, double-sided A3 sheet, folded to A5.

The useful information could have been printed on two sides of plain A5 paper.

But then I would have missed the 18 photo opportunities he had taken and these, of course, had to be in colour and glossy! What a waste of money.

We know what he looks like. The bit that really got my goat (and hence this letter) is the small print at the bottom: “The costs of this publication have been met from parliamentary resources.”

No they have not. They have been met by us taxpayers! Self-aggrandisement should be paid for by either the MSP himself, or his party.
