Interesting news today about the apparent increased cost of the two wars. Just saw BBC's News 24 and it seems that the subject has developed into a general military funding issue. The minister, you know, the one with Hitlers tash (or was it Blakey from On the busses), looked a tadd uncomfortable in his interview.
I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the hallowed halls of the MoD and various government offices at the mo...... :hmm:

So they've spent £3.3 ish Billion on Afghanistan and Iraq the past year. FFS, they spent £55 Billion bailing out the incompetent bankers at Northern Rock!!! How many more worthwhile things could that have been spent on/invested in. To$$ers :ugh::ugh::ugh:
