Rejected petition Why is the bankrupt country paying for a millionaires house re-furbishment

More details

David Cameron is a millionaire, he is currently living rent free and getting the tax-payer to pay for his renovations, for a property that was refurbished under Gordon Brown.
Why should we pay for this when schools are getting their renovation grants cut.
David Cameron has spent more than £680,000 of public money renovating Downing Street in the year that his government inflicted the biggest ever spending cuts across the public sector.
Records of all government spending reveal nine bills for the refurbishment of Downing Street including £30,000 for work he and his wife, Samantha, carried out on the No 11 flat last summer. The centrepiece of their revamp was the kitchen.
No 10 has confirmed that the full £30,000 grant for upkeep of the living accommodation, which is available to prime ministers annually, was used for the refit of 11 Downing Street, after the Guardian discovered the payment in the official spending records.
