The rag scum shouldn't get any funding for this Billy big bollocks project when there's so many problems this country is facing, they won't in my opinion be getting a single penny because they'll be a UK wide uproar and people rightly just won't accept it.

What was it that Rachel Reeves said this week ? "If we can't afford it, it ain't happening" ( or words to that effect ).
