YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDominic Raab has defended the Government’s plans to spend £900,000 repainting the Prime Minster’s plane, saying it “delivers bang for our buck.”
It was revealed on Wednesday that the military plane will be adorned with the colours of the Union Flag at a cost of almost £1 million, prompting criticism from Opposition MPs.
But the Foreign Secretary said it is “not like painting your bike” and said we should be “proud of Britain’s role in the world.”
Asked by LBC’s Nick Ferrari whether the cost was justified when the pension triple lock could be at risk, Mr Raab said: “I don’t think there’s a trade-off there, but of course we keep our travel fleet up to date, the maintenance and repair.
“It’s really important that the ability of the Prime Minister to be able to get to other places around the world and get back to the UK is critically important.
“There’s regular upgrades that take place, it’s not like painting your bike.
