The Prime Minister will task engineering and aerospace experts in the UK to develop options for a British Global Navigation Satellite System that would guide missiles and power satnavs.

If it is comparable with Galileo, a British satellite navigation network would cost ten billion quid in capital costs and then about a billion a year to run. Money that could be spent on the NHS instead. I don't remember seeing that written on the side of that bus.
