I know. £50m on Mendy. £60m on Cancelo. I suspect Mahrez was keen, though.Farcical this increased defence spending. Any right wingers on here, do you actually want this?
I don't see how increased defence spending is a political (right vs left) issue.Farcical this increased defence spending. Any right wingers on here, do you actually want this?
Are people on the left against defence spending? I.E, are you in favour of making hundreds of thousands of people (particularly in the NW) redundant not to mention the reduction in defence capability?
This view is why the Labour hard left and the unions are out of touch with the real working class.
I personally am very surprised they are increasing spending but any spending anywhere is more than welcome.

No mention on here about defence spending being reduced over the last 4 years. A friend of mine was a recruiter in this area and he was told to drastically reduce the number of new recruits for years because units had been amalgamated or disbanded.

Another dead cat to distract from the media attacking the corrupt cunts for more dodgy deals.
I wonder how much of that will go a Tory cat food business owner?

Bozza going all Rule Brittania now with the 'increased' spending on defence.
Let's not forget it's the Tories that massively reduced defence spending during austerity ( a term now not be used in Tory circles).
Half of this latest expenditure just makes up what we've lost since 2010.
Also I thought the new idea was to spend more on cyber security than conventional defence, although was that the Dom's plan?
And finally a message to the Tories - come and brag about all this extra spend and making us the most prominent naval power in Europe again when you've actually done it rather than a claim based on figures on the back of a fag packet aimed at winning the news cycle for the next 24 hours and detracting from your Covid crisis.
