[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 259872, member: 33"] [B][U]Six Things The Government Spent Money On Instead Of A Pay Rise For NHS Staff[/U] 1. £2.6m: Refurbishment for White House-style press briefings[/B] The Tory government has spent more than £2.6 million on renovations at Downing Street in order to hold White House-style press briefings which is little more than a vanity project for the Tories. [B]2. £37bn: Spending on failed Test and Trace system [/B]£37 billion for their friends at Serco Test and Trace and just £3.50 a week for an NHS nurse. Lining the pockets of their friends is the priority of the Tories. [B]3. £4.4bn: Additional costs of Brexit preparations[/B] Britain’s withdrawal from the European Union cost the taxpayer more than £4 billion in additional government costs, according to the National Audit Office. Contrast this with the £350 million a week extra for the NHS that Johnson and Sunak promised us as a Brexit dividend. [B]4. £150m: Millions of unusable face masks[/B] The government paid Ayanda Capital (a company co-owned by a Tory Party donor more than £150 million of public money for 50 million masks that were unsuitable for use in the NHS. [B]5. £1m: Boris Johnson’s ‘Brexit plane’ gets a red, white and blue makeover [/B] A plane used to transport the prime minister was given a red, white and blue makeover that cost £1 million. The once-grey RAF Voyager was resprayed in white, with a Union flag on the tailfin and United Kingdom written in gold on the fuselage. [B]6. £340,000: Payout to Home Office official after Priti Patel bullying claims [/B] The government agreed a “substantial” payout reported to be £340,000 to settle a top civil servant’s employment tribunal claim after he quit due to Home Secretary Priti Patel’s bullying. Don't believe the Tories when they say we can't afford to pay the nurses because they can always find money to dish out to their friends and supporters. [/QUOTE]
