Boris Johnson opens new £35m space facility as UK vows to be 'world leader' after BrexitBORIS JOHNSON has opened a new £35million space facility after the Government vowed to 'cement the UK's position as a world leader in science, research and innovation' after Brexit.

Just look at what Bezos spent on his own vanity project. Spend the money of feeding hungry children instead Jeff Bezos spent $5.5 billion for 5 minutes space flight. More nonsense gesture politics from Fat Boy Dim.
