Buy British but do so with caution.

BAe has over the years used the buy British policy of Govenments of both party's to ramp up the price and deliver late, they just took the Govenments and tax payers for a ride.

The first time they got a message that this should not continue was when they so overpriced the Buldog refurbishment that they lost the contract to the Grob 115.

But undaunted by this they continued to rip off The tax payer with the Nimrod MR4 that as usual was late and over budget .............. The only way to show the con artists at the top of BAe that the UK tax payer had had enough of their antics was to chop up the project outside their office windows.
