All in the best possible taste!!

It is also used by members of the Royal Family.........they should have probably waited awhile.

I can imagine what they think. Toe curling.

Does anyone know if Johnson drinks a tad too much? He seemed very odd today at PMQs

Why would you do that? A plane is a plane. Does the colour matter? Does the country have £900K to fritter away in this way?

How can we possibly respect a decision by someone who doesn’t know what a comb is or how to use it?
This has bothered me for years now.

looked as if he was on something, that wide eyed Gove look or the guy who was chancellor cant even remember HIS name there have been so many recently bt he always looked high on an illegal substance

Not that there's anything more pressing to spend the money on. Schools?

its small change compared to a royal yacht !

I’d be interested to see if anyone actually says it’s a good idea.

I mean how can they be finding the time to discuss trivia like this at the moment, it’s an insult.

Ridiculous.

It just demonstrates the tin ear yet again doesn’t it? This is just so not the time to release this information or is it just sheer GFery?

I'm now seeing on twitter that there are plans, once the Development Aid ministry has been swallowed up by the Foreign Office, for some of the aid money to be used to build a new Royal Yacht.

I can't believe that's true, I'll check it out in the morning.

If it is true, I wonder what all those small minded people who can't bear wasting any of 'our' money on foreigners will think of the idea...

It’s Penny Mordaunt who’s calling for this. I wonder who’s put her up to it?

It seems he wasn’t happy that the plane was grey, unbelievable.

A perfect target for a terrorist with a ground-to-air missile shortly after take-off. Grey, on the other hand, is hard to spot or to distinguish from other planes.

As an aside, does anyone know if Johnson drinks? The reason I ask, is that I thought his behaviour and demeanour at PMQs this week very odd. Well, more odd then usual that is!

All this and reports that they are after stopping the triple lock on our pension.

We already have the worst pension in Europe.

Won’t affect the wealthy so that’s fine

Couldn’t make it up, could you?
Do we really have so much money sloshing around for such a vanity project?
I despair, when people are hungry, homeless and jobless. I won’t go on or I’ll get banned, so for the moment words fail me. God help us all!

‘Fly the Flag’ for the U.K. what’s wrong with that? We are entering the final stages of negotiations with the E.U. Seems as good a time as any to be promoting Britain.

There'd be nothing wrong with frittering £900K if we had plenty of spare money but we don't. Although its not a huge amount of money in the grand scheme of things, there are plenty of other things that £900K could be spent on atm.

ug do you whizz your posts off without a moments thought?

Not even Trump has resorted to such poor taste.

Do you have any concept of the financial problems facing the UK following the pandemic ?

Covid has cost this country more money than we could ever imagine and we, the great British Taxpayer will be penalised to make up the deficit: £900K would have gone a long way to softening that blow.
