Of course this sort of thing never happens in the "democratic" UK, where also MPs don't embezel every penny they possibly can from the hard up tax payer by pretending that their sister's fridge is their main residence whilst "employing" every member of the family to get as many snouts in the trough as possible, and rapists and murderers aren't able to walk free 'cause there's no room in the prisons and in which they will suddenly find room if you dare not to pay your council tax!............sorry for the thread drift but just wanted to point out that there is corruption everywhere and I think Dubai is getting a disproportionate amount of bad press at the moment.
