The Taxpayer ALWAYS pays

If the costs for the search for the missing disks had been left with the Met, who would have paid for it then? The taxpayer of course! At least this way it is the taxpayers of the whole nation, rather than just those funding the Police force in London who foot the bill.

It doesn't matter where or who in the public sector wastes money, who clears up the mess, or which other branch of the sector the bill is passed off to, it is ALWAYS the taxpayer that pays for it in the end.
