Let me be the first to congratulate you both on advising the Govt to borrow a fortune to send into a black hole with no discernible return. There's a reason for austerity measures . . . not that I'm going to mention bankruptcy (ooops I did) or the 40% tax hike on those who work for a living
I'm fairly sure it's been proven multiple times that austerity didn't work.

Would you have an issue with the money being used on the new 'British Flagship' which if i remember correctly is approx circa. £200m being used to support Afghan refugees coming to the country?

There's also no evidence to support that there would be 'no discernible return'

Are you advocating that those who worked with UK forces should in essence be left to fend for themselves, knowing that this could mean their deaths?
