The one thing everyone agrees on , especially his friends and ex-employers, is that you can't trust Boris at all.

He'll do whatever is best for Boris at any particular moment.

It worries me to hear the words " wasteful Ministry of Defence procurement projects" - we know the UK MoD isn't exactly brilliant at procurement but what programs are currently underway that would make a difference financially?

Dreadnought - he'd face a melt -down from his supporters
F-35 - not when he wants to cozy up to Trump
Apache replacement - possible stretch I guess
Astute #7 - possible stretch
T-26 - surely not?
PoW - stretch - probable?

I'm scratching my head to see what else there is TBH
