It's all very well saying, oh it will cost more than the benefit cuts to the disabled. You could say that about anything. It's a fraction of what we send to India.

If there wasn't anything to moan about, the Thatcher-haters would invent something.

Ok if you don't like lavish how about ceremonial? It is all very well attempting to justify it too, are you now suggesting that we suspend aid to developing countries to fund this?
