History shows targeted aid reduces the burden on the military. Labour is risking the very security we are trying to ensure, says Gen Lord Dannatt, former chief of the general staff

It's also, and I know this seems petty of me, the bloody law that companies should file accounts.
If the Government isn't going to actually enforce the law (and they don't), the least they could do is NOT GIVE MONEY TO PEOPLE WHO BREAK IT.

Large businesses are very wary of dong business with companies that haven't been filing their accounts. Governments should take the same approach.

Personally, I wouldn't invest £55m in a company that's unable to file its accounts on time.
But this is just Government money so I guess it doesn't matter.

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

Last week, two gas power plants held the country to ransom, forcing us to pay over 40x the market rate - or they would refuse to run. We urgently need to reform the energy sector and end our reliance on fossil gas. The idea that green energy is more expensive is ridiculous…
Why have Britain’s energy costs soared and what does it mean for Labour?
