And here’s another £285 million squandered in Austerity Britain

“New claims have emerged that the government was warned the airport in St Helena, in the South Atlantic would be dangerous because of strong winds.

It is claimed that the Department for International Development (DfID), which approved the project, ignored a report by consultants a decade ago revealing serious concerns about the cliffside airport on the remote island.”

One thought on “And here’s another £285 million squandered in Austerity Britain”

  1. Is the Department for International Development anything to do with the Foreign Office? If so, would this have been our Hugo’s responsibility by any chance?
