What's In A Name?


From Drumlanrig, "Wales has stolen a march on the SNP after its Assembly decided last week to apply for a new domain name for its internet address, to be known as .cym. This has now emboldened the Nationalists to press ahead with their own change which could see all Scottish Government departments soon end in .sco. No doubt Labour peer Lord Foulkes is already gearing up for a bitter tirade against creeping nationalism."

£3,644,000.


"MPs have spent more than £3m of taxpayers' cash redesigning the parliamentary website, it has been revealed. The overhaul, which has taken more than two years, was approved in an effort to make the Houses of Parliament more accessible. The total bill now stands at £3,644,000, according to figures released by the House of Commons Commission, the committee chaired by Speaker Michael Martin."

That's a lot of cash. Mr Smith's blog hasn't cost nearly that much to get up and running.
