Why The Fuss?

The Times and Daily Mail lead on stories of the flurry of ministerial announcements and the report from the National Audit Office as MPs start their 80+ day holiday.

Personally I can't see what the fuss is over this long recess; after all is said and done, our real government in Brussels is hard at work - what does it matter if a few admin clerks, based in Whitehall, skive off for a few weeks?
