First France spoke about "leveraging" private investments to ramp up military spending, and now the UK is looking to do the same....

That's bad. But the worst part (for me) is that the rearmament effort will be exempt from ESG rules!! What a fucking joke.

"The Government is also working in parallel to ensure defence investments are not hindered by so-called environmental, social and governance (ESG) rules. John Healey, the Defence Secretary, revealed this week that he was working with Rachel Reeves, the Chancellor, to ensure future investment would not be not blocked on ESG grounds."

This is as close as you can get to saying that ESG is there to block growth and investment and industry.
