UK university splashes the cash on art while 555 staff live on €8.80 an hour
A top British university has been criticised for spending £1.4m (€1.65m) on art including works by Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol while it charges students £9,000-a-year (€10.600) and pays hundreds of staff less than the Living Wage.
Durham University added to its collection of fine treasures when it kitted out the new administrative Palatine Centre in the historic city, the Law School, the Mountjoy Centre and a library extension.
