23:00:05 <sbp> I guess it's just a generic modern translation then, not actually a word for word text translation. I mean, it's not word for word anyway, clearly, which would be most helpful...

23:24:00 <sbp> If there is a new government on 7 May, former ministers can return to their offices to clear out their desks. By the end of last week, some had already begun to pack up.
23:24:00 <sbp> In the great Whitehall tradition, some ministers also chose to leave notes for their successors offering friendly advice – usually on how to handle the civil servants in their departments.
23:24:00 <sbp> But there are other ways to send a message. One minister said at the tail end of last week that they had spent their final working days spending every last penny they could find in their departmental budget. "I've used up what's left in the coffers. I'm not leaving them anything."
