Because you can just get a helicopter to take you wherever you want to go.
The best bit is you just charge it to the taxpayer.
Well it’s transport and it’s owned by the public

WELL! if Helicopters are good enough for Sushi? Mishie? Mashi? RISHI,they are good enogh for ME!
I look forward to the future where we have the technology to hold meetings where you can be a part of the meeting but not in person.
I think Google and Microsoft are missing a trick….

They’re not even trying to hide their gross abuse of public assets are they..
Fuck this guy. Fuck tories.
Shapes is a proper scammer. He has done properly dodgy stuff, like that $500 ebook, and he has used pseudonyms to do it. He also lied about it. Firing him as transport secretary was one of Truss’s only good decisions
Redditors love to get their knickers in a twist over helicopter use by our country’s leaders. Without even considering how the world works.
Shapps is Secretary of State for Defence. Time is one of their most precious resources, getting to a train station, securing the route, securing the carriage all with his entourage is not practical. Or cheap.
As well as that, these RAF flights are part of routine training for the pilots that need to be carried out anyway.
This is nothing more than an ignorant headline.
Look, it was cheaper to get *one* helicopter for him, Michael Green, Corinne Stockheath and Sebastian Fox than to buy *four* train tickets, okay?
He has a lot of integrity – all of the Conservative party do
This guy is a truly an embarrassment to our country. Not sure if anyone heard Mick Lynch speak about him recently but I now cringe seeing Grant in the headlines
Do members of Cabinet go anywhere further than Whitehall to Westminster in any other way than helicopters or planes?
Surely this could have been done via a voice or video call? Even taking the train was a waste of money.
So? Ministers get driven round by motorcade all the time and senior ones by air.
We’ve got Lee Waters in Wales preaching public transport and cycling but gets driven everywhere.
