HAS Chancellor Gordon Brown no shame?

The answer his secretary gave me after I wrote to him about his decision to close the Department of Work and Pensions centre at Monk's Cross, near York, beggars belief.

What a waste to spend public money on an office block, only for it to close two years later.
