[QUOTE="Swarfmonkey, post: 8096277, member: 144242"] £2bn is chump change as far as government expenditure goes. Heck, it's barely 2% of what the Treasury is planning to spend this year. The NHS spends more than that a year just settling medical negligence claims. It costs the Treasury twice that in tax breaks to charities a year. Tax credits and housing benefit cost the Treasury [I]twenty[/I] times that amount per year. Interest on the national debt this year will be more than [I]forty[/I] times that amount. [/QUOTE]
