Lloyds to purchase stake in Manor?

Ok, I realise that the position that Lloyds has found itself in is largely due to the government's suggestion that it would be a nice idea to buy HBOS to stop it from collapsing. But the fact remains that the bank is essentially being propped up by the taxpayer. Bearing in mind that it's going to take us 50 years or so to pay off all this debt, is it really right that the money's being spent on a minor team in F1???
