Parliament's back-benchers have been rooting out the one great evil of the Government's dastardly plot to subvert all right-thinking individuals' free will and destroy the economy in one fell swoop. Yes, that's right - they've discovered that the Defence Force pays $76 per fortnight for a
spoof horoscope column in the Army's newsletter. Scandal! And they've been running the column since 1990. Gasp!!
"While it's not a lot of money, it does exemplify or highlight a culture of waste that is evident within the Ministry of Defence," says NZ First defence spokesman Ron Mark.
[Perhaps someone should point out to Mr Mark that the Defence Force and the Ministry of Defence are separate entities. On second thoughts, it's probably not worth the effort]
