Seems a very short-sighted decision - nose and face , etc! However, since the benefit is to GB Plc, which abroad is the remit of the FCO, why does not the Foreign Office pick up the very modest tab. Hell, it could be paid out of the Lottery Fund (or the small change from a big lottery win)instead of some of the daft things they do support (and lots of ethnic minorities would benefit, which seems the Lottery's major criterion). Dare I say, a better deal for GB Plc than an airborne trxxxgle - OK, I have my coat..................
