@Element_M1ller Only £500 million is taxpayer money, the rest of it will be paid back by Ukraine/Russia. The money spent in Ukraine has a lot less obligation and will probably have more of an impact
@Element_M1ller Ukraine is currently facing an existential threat and a humanitarian crisis, not to mention that they’re being invaded by Russia.
I understand being against almost all public spending but as that’s not available it makes sense to prefer this to some useless government program.
@mrginden@sigmahamster2 It can be as specific as possible, and likely wouldn’t be changed as the electorate aren’t incentivised to.
That’s still a preferable alternative to the socialist plunder we see today.
