Yes I know that they'll spend on stuff that's not really needed or create extra projects etc, which would actually fall under the departmental remit. But it's not generally accepted or common knowledge that the practice is to lie about what money is being spent on, and instead spend it on something illegal, or something for personal pleasure or benefit, is it? I didn't know that was 'the done thing,' at all.

I'm having a party. I owe you 10,000 for some prostitutes or drugs or whatever illegal reason. I buy soda from you. You pay 40 cents a can and sell it to me at 60 dollars a can. I have effectively paid you your money and made it look legit on the books...

Yeah exactly, that's what I was saying.
