Ammunition for shows??

Hi all,
I dont know about you, but I get really fed up at shows of people
going on about the amount of money the government of the time poured
into to DeLorean project and trying to justify the cars existence.
I often quote 'and what about British Leyland' when people say this,
but I've done some research this afternoon and come up with the
following which you can feel free to quote when you get jibes about
taxpayers money:
Railtrack - £2 billion +
Channel Tunnel and Rail-link - £9 billion +
Millennium Dome - £940 million
British Aerospace - £500 million
I'm sure there are plenty more, but it doesnt make the money invested
into DeLorean look too significant now, does it?
