P145 CEEFAX 2 145 Sat 18 Dec 16:53/22 Ordering 232 of the Eurofighter planes at £40m each is just ridiculous. As it is unlikley we will ever go to war without the US we need never build or buy this typj of war machine again. If we did need some we could lease them from America, which would be a far cheaper and more practical method. Let's stop speLding money on things which kill and usj it for the living.

P145 CEEFAX 2 145 Sat 18 Dec 16:54/14@UU MH asks about the interpretation of our constitution (letters 18/12). Our constijution is not a fixed and written one likj that of the US. What we have is laughingly known as "traditional". This means that the government can invoke it or ignore it to suit the occasion, but the people have no specific constitutional rights at all.
