and provided the Saudis with enough fire power to take out the whole of the Middle East

At PMQs Starmer said we had supplied Saudi Arabia with £1.5 billion of armaments in just one month, so you could be right BT, maybe they could take out the entire Middle East. What I would have liked Starmer to have been asked, seeing as he's so well informed is,

1) How many ordinary working class people in this country would be put out of work, if we stopped supplying arms to Saudi Arabia, as at £1.5 billion a month the number made unemployed would not be inconsiderable.

2) As thousands of workers are put out of work in this country, which countries workers do you think would benefit from replacing the UK as arms suppliers to Saudi Arabia, because they would most certainly source them from elsewhere.

3) What do you say to those workers now without a job, how do you justify putting them in that situation, when it makes no difference to Saudi Arabia, who are now getting their arms from somewhere else ?

Sir Keir can't answer because no one has asked him, perhaps you could answer for him BT, I'm sure the pair of you sing from the same hymn sheet on this topic.

I watched the Budget with the father-in-law and I think you must have recorded my conversation and represented on here sinkov, you little eavesdropper:

We both think Johnson is right to cut foreign aid with the mess our own economy is in.

We both think the Saudis need to stop bombing Yemeni civilians and take on Israel instead.

We both think BAE need to up their game and sell more military gear and weapons across the globe and keep the French and Yanks out of landing overseas defence contracts.

We both think British jobs should be protected but please stop bombing Yemen, try Iran instead.

We both have no idea what Starmer thinks. Does Starmer? He is the worst Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition I can ever remember...
