Binyamin Netanyahu's $1,600 hair styling

A visit to New York by Israel's prime minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, and his wife Sara cost the country's taxpayers $541,886 (£382,000) , according to a detailed breakdown published after months of attempts by his office to prevent its release.

The cost – which included thousands of dollars for hairstyling and makeup for Netanyahu – follows a series of other recent controversies over the luxurious life enjoyed by the prime minister at the taxpayer's expense – not least their travel.
