THE UK Government is accused of “wasting” public money after reports that it will spend £7 million to renovate the front door of the House of Lords.
The massive bill is more than triple the original £2m estimate. The work to beef up security is to be done on the main “Peers' Entrance” to Westminster.
SNP MP Tommy Sheppard said people in Scotland would be “appalled that the Tory government is wasting £7m on a fancy new door for the House of Lords during a cost of living crisis”.
