Wasting taxpayer money - from The New York Times:
A Haircut for French Taxpayers? Hollande’s $10,000-a-Month Stylist Is Revealed
As heads of state go, this one appears to be quite expensive.
The investigative and satirical newspaper Le Canard Enchaîné reported on Wednesday that President François Hollande’s personal hairdresser has been paid 9,895 euros — over $10,000 — per month since Mr. Hollande was elected in 2012, about the same amount as a government minister’s salary.
The report is especially jarring for Mr. Hollande, 61, a Socialist who campaigned on the promise that he would be a “normal” and exemplary president but who has seen his private life spill into the open on several occasions.
They should fly my barber over once/month - it would be a lot cheaper, she would enjoy the travel and he would get a really good looking haircut. And you wonder just how many other egregious wastes like this there are throughout the EU government. No wonder England went for BREXIT.
