@Tweets_of_Oscar@thesahilshah Assuming the state paid for it, the destination of the interest payments would be in the UK. Or, a lower price could have been charged. In both of these cases the UK would have retained a greater degree of spending capabilities. The opportunity cost for the state is a good point
@Tweets_of_Oscar@thesahilshah Of course it should. The entity in receipt of said interest, however, could have been British rather than French. That is to say, the British state should have stumped the capital to maximise value for UK PLC.
@Tweets_of_Oscar@thesahilshah If two thirds of our electricity bills are going to a state enterprise, would it not be preferable that it at least goes to a British enterprise?
