Another one gone. Another expensive and utterly wasteful by-election on the horizon that'll see the winner sit in parliament for a few weeks summer recess and then a winter election.
All this waiting around sure doesn't seem to be good for anyone but the guys running the show.
I know next to nothing about this but I'd assume the public money cost would be around sending out all the voter cards, organising venues for the voting, cost of processing the votes at various stages etc.
