So I dont think it would make such a dent in mr bowns's purse. He could easily forfeit the 30 million we pay to the eu each month and use that on the people...ha ha ha |
Another point that hasn't been mentioned is that another study on the cost of Trident revealed it could easily cost in excess of £100 billion, rather than the overly optimistic estimate of £20 billion.
Let's put this in perspective. This country is arguably at social meltdown. What would be the point in stopping a supposedly enemy state in the near future from destroying what is vastly becoming a crap society anyway?
Why are we concerned about foreign states, when we can't even battle the chavs on our own streets?
