We have our own procurement plans, and anyone capable of reading past the spin the independent has put on this story will note that nowhere is there any suggestion that the UK’s approach will result in fewer items arriving more slowly. They have gone to some lengths to prompt careless readers from drawing that conclusion by basically welding two different stories together - but nonetheless they still don’t actually report that the UK government has actually disadvantaged itself. Because there’s no evidence that it has.
