Unless the British government has some oil-wells or huge deposits of gold or other precious minerals, etc., and invested in sovereign funds, it has to derive its income from direct or indirect taxation. When you have a spreadsheet with 9 or 10 zeros behind most figures, giving aways �60,000,000 is just a tap on some keys for Osborne, even though most of it will go into the pockets of fat generals and greasy politicians, and mean no shoes for little Johnny at home.
