A million million worlds that move in peace;
A million mighty laws that never cease;
And one small ant-heap, hidden by small weeds,
Rich with eggs, slaves and store of millet-seeds.
They sleep beneath the sod
And trust in God.
--
A Common Inference.

I think that Elin Jones made the point that that ?450 million could have gone on health or anything else, but obviously the issue is that if you had another ?450 million from somewhere else, you have got another ?450 million, but what does that tell you? That is like saying, if my aunty was a bloke, she would be my uncle.

It would be three-dimensional chess with a million billion squares and a million pieces, and with the rules changing ever move.
