That's the way to do it!
UN is really starting to loose their credibility, aren't they? :-(

Ms Postlewait was in her early 30s when she went on her first trip abroad for the UN, supervising elections in Cambodia. There, she soon worked out that she could save enough money from her expense account to set herself up nicely back in New York. In other frauds, UN staff were said to quote blackmarket currency exchange rates to pad out their expenses.    The authors also complain that they encountered "bureaucratic betrayal" on missions, as the UN allegedly struck cynical deals with corrupt local officials.

the UN is pi55ing their pants over THAT!

Let's blow the lid off the hypocrasy in this - and other organizations!

Starting?  I think they've got to the point where they're looking it up in the dictionary...
