Although the Reds total cost to the MOD balance sheet is very small indeed - they may be disbanded, but an awful lot else will have to go as well to achieve the new saving target.
To my mind, the main problem caused by the Reds continuing to exist is not that they cost a lot of money which could be put to better use elsewhere
Oppurtunity cost is the flavour of the day... go back a while we withdrew from the Royal Tattoo... if we are completely reaslistic, they stand no chance without sponsorship from outside; fortunately, I think they will attract it.
What a bloody sorry state of affairs Blabour drove us to.
