It's nearly four times the original estimate ffs. Do they really think we're that stupid?

Exactly, which fucking idiots put in the estimate for the "bid". Well done to all those involved in keeping it to its realistic budget

Presumably it was a case of "shit, they wont agree to fund a 10 billion quid piss up for cockneys. Lets just say it will cost 1/4 of that and by the time they find out, we'll have been given a golden goodbye and will be screwing someone else over"

What a waste of money, the cockney barra boys will be rubbing there hands thinking of all the tak they can be selling on the street corners, muggers paradise.
