Indian billionaire moves into worlds most expensive "house":

I think that Caecescau's palace in Bucharesti might qualify as the worlds most expensive house - as for some 5 years it consumed c.20% of Romanias national budget in its construction. If you ever go to Romania it is well worth a visit, mainly (to me) as a reminder of how cruel and tyrannical a man he was. It is simply an incredibly grandeous structure - for which he demolished a whole chunk of the city (so it would be aligned correctly)...

Infact, he demolished more than that; so you could see it from the outskirts as you aproached the city... Don't get my missus started on the subject...

Yes, its a huge area around the palace itself - including a series of tree lined boulevards leading up to the palace. The pictures really dont do it justice-  it may 'only' be 12 storey (and 9 underground) but each of the storeys is double decker bus height..

I can't believe Fox can escape this debacle. No, wait, of course I bloody can.

Don't think he will, even the Sun is on his case:

It's obvious that he will go - and all those Tory MPs who vouched for him will look all the more corrupt/stupid/weak willed for doing so. Cameron is so scared of back bench dissent he has lost sight of the fact that his own credibility is slipping.

What credibility is that?

[tommytwotone]

...Cameron...his own credibility is slipping.

(Remind me again, which is the evil one, is it Ian or Duncan?)

Tell you what though, I'm glad the government are clamping down on that wasteful behemoth the BBC. The fuckers need reigning in as they never do anything useful with the licence fee and never produce anything worth watching or listening to.

What's more they're stifling competition with their unfair advantage in the way they're funded. I mean how is a private company supposed to prosper when up against a publicly financed monster like the Corporation?

Yeah, sort it out Cameron......
