It does when you factor in the reasons *why* the ceremonial stuff is needed (ie the Royals). But that's a different discussion...MattFalle said:
the ceremonial stuff doesn't actually cost that much

Getting fixated on the cost of ceremonial uniform is like turning the TV off completely by standby to save electricity, whilst keeping the house at 28C all winter, isn't it?0

There are a long list of UK procurement mainly involving the development of new weapons or machinery that is demonstrably not good value for either the soldier or the public. Nuclear subs ironically are not that bad but this is only because they are an iteration of what has gone before with a steady supply chain. Still would struggle to claim value for money mind.0

Interesting news from Romania last night. They lost a Mig 21 (should have been retired years ago) andn then subsequently lost a SAR helicopter which was sent up to look for it. Both crashed. Poor weather apparently, although much speculation on Twitter to the contrary...0

I see that a Russian businessman has taken out what amounts to a million dollar contract hit on dear Vlad.

As much as you I guess, might be a bit risky. If it was an order of magnitude or so higher then I reckon there'd be some serious interest.rick_chasey said:

Good payback though - for example if you were a major shareholder in say Sberbank just now, you could go a lot higher than $1m and potentially get a great return.rick_chasey said:

I don't think it's a bounty of any size that's going to tip someone over from not killing Putin to killing him.Stevo_666 said:

If the bounty is high enough it could well get some interested who are just motivated by the money (rather than those who already hate him). And who may well be quite good at that sort of thing.rick_chasey said:

Flashed up on BBerg - Moscow has drawn up plans to discourage Ukrainians from fighting back when they fall under Russian control.
Strategy includes crackdowns on protests, detention of opponents, and potentially carrying out public executions.

I mean more there are plenty of people who would do it for free and I think an awful lot of people, let alone states want him dead - I don't think the lack of money for wanting him dead is what is keeping him alive - it is an irrelevance.MattFalle said:
