I broadly agree with you that the loss of £70,000 of taxpayers money should raise questions.
You dismiss Iron-Awe’s comments but on the Farage thread he points out that the publicity stunt that was the Clacton bye-election wasted £250,000 of taxpayers money. That’s over three and a half times more than the desperate lady in the OP.
You didn’t start a thread decrying that and I think that’s where the two tier thing comes in. The rich and powerful get away with it and Joe Public gets slated.
There’s some lefty truth for you.
“A street kid is arrested.
He’s gonna do some time.
He gets out three years from now,
Just to commit more crime.
A business man is caught,
With 24 kilos.
He out of jail and out on bail.
And that’s the way it goes”
