Sep 16^th, 2024 at 2:22pm

“The Scottish government is expected to officially accept Australia’s offer at Monday’s meeting, clearing the way for Glasgow to host, as the city successfully did in 2014.

The Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) will give Scotland almost $200 million towards hosting - money coming from $380m in compensation from the Victorian government.”

No cost of living crisis in government obviously?

Blame Dirty Dan -

he put us into 100s of $billions of debt.

Even our great grand children will not be able to pay it off.

And he was prepared to send you down the other debt trap Chinese Belt & Road Scheme.
