Ridiculous post-imperial delusion - 99% of British citizens have no idea where these places are on the map. Why are we bailing them out with our taxes? They should stand on their own feet.

Pytangua, many of the BoTs are self sufficient only relying on Britain for Foreign and Military support. Check yourself before you spout nonsense.

No, you said ‘more profitable’, it isn’t, because there is no profit in the first place, more of nothing is still nothing.

‘Cost’ is a different thing entirely.

Blink. Blink.
