You should be able to get around without it costing the earth. That’s why we’re extending the £3 bus fare cap until 2027. Our Plan for Change is putting money back in your pocket.

Trooping the Colour, how much do you pay for this ridiculous charade?. £20,000,000. That is 800 Nurses, 500 Doctors or 1000 Teachers. We need all of them, we don't need this.

In other words, the UK is planning to pay Mauritius annually over 5 times their entire defence budget. Doesn’t sound like there’s any threat to our continued use of a military base there - other than the government’s humiliation kink.
@ChagosDeal It will cost about £100million per year, and we get guaranteed continued use of an excellent military base. For Truss' tax cuts it would cost more than £40billion per year, and we'd get nothing for it.

The cost of the Chagos ‘deal’ is equal to the combined flyaway & ancillary costs of 116 F-35A Lightning II JSFs.
So, it appears that the RAF will purchase the F-35A Lightning II JSF over and above more F-35B or more Typhoons. This will be a controversial decision to some, but it de-risks GCAP / Tempest while increasing combat jet numbers. However, it is also tacit recognition that the F-35B
