OP-3286B	IS THE GOV'T OUT OF CONTROL?	Is it time the public finances became public - with the public having a say in how their hard-earned money is spent in the country? The task of good housekeeping is difficult - and too big a challenge for 650 MPs alone?	THE GUARDIAN	GOVERNMENT	Spending
OP-3036B	CAUSE TO START OVER WITH GOV'T?	The sums of money involved are eye-watering. If a citizen failed to account for a fraction of gov't money there would be hell in the media. But when gov't fails to account for taxpayers' money - nothing happens. Why?	TCW	GOVERNMENT	Spending
BP-5453G	GOV'T PAYOUTS ARE ON THE UP	Ministry of Defence spending on settlements of bullying and harassment cases is more than doubling each year. It's also paid huge compensation sums for the Afghan data breach - and covered it up.	CIVIL SERVICE WORLD	GOVERNMENT	Spending
BP-5414D	LESS ON AID - MORE ON WAR?	The UK gov't will cut 40% from international aid - and divert the funds to "defence." Do we need to ask - given how much military support goes to Israel - will this mean more is spent on war and genocide?	CIVIL SERVICE WORLD	GOVERNMENT	Spending
BP-5335G	IT'S ONLY JUST UNDER £50M!	Asylum seekers are people - but they are also key parts of a massive industry, it appears. The UK's Home Office wrote off £48.5m on an ex-MOD site to warehouse asylum seekers - now deemed unsuitable.	CIVIL SERVICE WORLD	GOVERNMENT	Spending
