Charged quote Government unveils 15 billion pound defence investment plan
Let's leave with the I. Kistama gift to Burnham, £4.7 billion hole in the first budget to fund the war plan. The Metro, Britain needs you to queue. Be interested to see what that one's about. The Daily Express, the PM still puts welfare ahead of defence boost. The independent Starmer defence plan leaves Britain unprepared for war. The Sun, we are the lions that roar.

absolutely hundreds of billions of pounds, which was all borrowed money. Labour have extended that money. They have borrowed more in order to give public sector pay rises and all sorts of other nonsense. And that is why we are in a really perilous situation. Add to that absolutely no growth whatsoever.
