Britains Debt

[gulliver1]

The UK now has the highest Debt since WW2 and what's Boris's latest Idea?
He is going to have a new Royal Yatch built at a cost of £200 Million.
as a tribute to The Duke of Edinburgh.
Borrow the money , spend it , then get the taxpayer to pay it back.
That's how Boris thinks.

//Surely that must appeal to our 'Labour' friends? //

how many labour voters work for Guangzhou Shipyard International?

[THECORBYLOON]

Will the yacht be built before or after constructing the bridge between Scotland and Ulster?

[Sunk]

I doubt her majesty at 95 has any desire to pratt about on a boat.
But daft Boris wasted £200Million on not building a Garden Bridge over the Thames.
So £200million building a boat for a Monarch who doesn’t want one sounds like bargain.
And when her majesty pops her clog, Tim nice but daft Wetherspoon can take it off Boris’s hands as a floating gastro pub.

floating hospitality venues don't have a good history in the UK......

@18.52.No,not rude.Just pointing out a few facts which makes an English based Scot go crying to the moderator every time i have a laugh at his expense.

[ToraToraTora]

do you have a link to this yacht idea?

[Theland]

A Royal Yaht doubling up as a floating conference centre, and carrying a Royal Marine band, flags bells and whistles, would do nothing but good for Britain's image abroad, and the Royals could use it every last week in July and first week of August.

or selected by labour's lord Irvine.

[ToraToraTora]

gully, perhaps you'd like to outline to us how the 4th Labour leader to win an election in 120 years might arise??

[gulliver1]

Wonder what the next Barm Pot idea will be to come from Johnson?.

[THECORBYLOON]

TORATORATORA, you can make that claim a thousand times if you want but it will never be true.

nasty stiff from rudditchungus, standard lefty hatred from those that cannot comprehend dissent.

[Jackdaw33]
