Waterproof jacket

Hiya

I'm looking for a light, waterproof jacket for long summer rides - would something like this fold up and fit inside the back pockets of a cycling jersey?

If anyone also has recommendations for something like this, up to £50, I'd be grateful..

Thanks!

I have one and it works well for the price

Ideally something nice and compact like this would be good.

But this comes close.

It's actually a running jacket but I find it great for cycling. It's very light and great for keeping in your bag just in case. Not fully waterproof, but also not too sweaty. Ok for a 30 min commute.
Best of all it's £12.95 (+£3.99 delivery)

i i like the look of this one. I'm looking for one to do my daily commute (17miles) is it solid enough or should i be looking at better?

Comes in it's own little pouch. rolls up to about the size of an orange. They have vents so you to relieve the "boil in the bag" syndrome
My cycling buddy and I both carry em when the weather could turn iffy like yesterday
