UK snout stories interesting, but...

The Australian media are finding plenty to say, as in "MPs on nose for snouts in trough" by Paola Totaro in Fairfax papers today, about rorts revealed in the UK. Few if any seem to be making the point that in many respects we just don't know how Australian counterparts spend much of the taxpayers' money that comes their way.
