I read that the Reds cost GBP6.5 million per year to the taxpayer. This so-called government is spending GBP7 million to teach civil servants how to tidy their desks. If we ask the taxpayer where they would rather spend the money, I have no doubt as to the answer. The civil servants are running riot with the cash and MOD, not to mention skools 'n hospitals, are being treated like Oliver (Charles Dickens, mate). The words 'inmates' and 'asylums' comes to mind.
