Israel’s Prime Minister scolded for spending nation’s money on customized bed
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been attacked by local mass media for spending £82,000 of public funds to install a customized sleeping cabin for his recent trip to London, British channel ITV has reported.
According to the Israeli TV’s Channel 10, the sleeping cabin had been installed on the plane before Mr Netanyahu’s five-hour flight to London to attend Margaret Thatcher’s funeral.
The prime minister’s office already commented on the news saying Mr Netanyahu needed the cabin to be fresh and alert for important meetings. They also noted the prime minister had been unaware of the cost of the cabin and already ordered the bed to be cancelled on all future flights.
