I know of someone who will work at a polling station.
She is a teacher and is off that day ,as the school has closed due to the Lisbon treaty vote.
She will recieve over 350 euro for the day.
She will also recieve a travel allowence.And other misc allowences.
She will also work on the count,another 350 euro.
She will/did get training pay.
And she has done it before so the cost to the taxpayer has doubled!
Oh and she will also get paid for her day off!!
Can anyone justify this amount of money,regardless of the profession of the person doing it?
Can anyone state how many people are employed to work at the polling stations throughout the country and then the count the next day.?
Then we can see the real cost to the taxpayer..
I hadnt made my mind up about which way to vote,and I dont believe in cutting my nose off to spite my face..BUT..Im very angry about this and feel like a NO vote is in order now,anything to bring this Government down.
Is this another expenses scandle waiting to happen??
