Remember when the Costas were burdened by the sobriquet Costa del Crime. The tables have now been turned. A new life in Spain is the star prize of a new online video game in which players can hurl custard pies at parliamentary members caught up in the expenses scandal.
Those who hit their chosen MP in the face six or more times within 30 seconds are entered into a draw for a ?1 million prize to start a new life in Spain. MPs in the firing line include Douglas Hogg, former Home Secretary Jacqui Smith, Hazel Blears; once the Communities Minister, not surprisingly Gordon Brown for whom I got a commendation for accuracy.

15000 tickets to be sold at ?50 per entry= ?750,000

Property valued at ?700,000 it says…Question; So who did the valuation?

Any bar is only worth what the buyer is prepared to offer and in these depressed times I doubt if realistically the property is worth anything like ?700,000

Besides ?700,000 for yet another Brit bar on the CDS?

Do me a favour; this has scam written all over it!

I could think of better things to use than custard pies though; where’s Guy Fawkes when you need him…
