    "They wouldn't have been necessary if Queenie hadn't been slacking in Balmoral instead of doing her bloody job" is what we all expected you to say.

    Who cares. The PM damn well should get private jets if it saves time.

    Probably not as much as commercial rates, by quite a margin.

    the ones flying today are owned by the Government (or to be a little more accurate, leased by them and operated by the RAF) and are in pretty regular use.

    They also lease two Airbus aircraft, for medium and long-haul flights, which are also in fairly regular use.

    I think it's around 25k for the type of Aircraft and the distance flown, they must have some government reduction as well. They could have flown in the Boris Jet BTW

    What the one with the super injunction which states he can't say how many children he has?

    Apparently Boris has already landed, this flight is carrying Liz Truss.

    Originally posted by BBC News
    With Boris Johnson safely landed and Liz Truss on the way, thousands of people have been tracking their progress online.

    Judging by Johnson's flight time of just over an hour, we can expect Truss to land in Aberdeen at about 10:45 BST, as she flies over the Midlands as we write.

    At one point as many as 20,000 people were tracking his journey - with around 10,000 currently watching his successor's progress through the air on the website Flightradar.
