Closed petition Spend the additional £16.5bn in defence spending in public services instead
Closed on
The Government have recently announced they are spending an additional £16.5bn in defence spending. (The most ever spent since The Cold War) - I propose that we redistribute that money into more vulnerable public servers (Such as the NHS)
Because it is absolutely ridiculous and unnecessary to spend an additional £16.5bn in defence spending.
