That is in good condition and worth far more than that front step.

That's the problem.

If a leader of foreign state, breaks his leg on this step, it could be a serious diplomatic crisis

Unfortunately, due to many successive governments running down the British armed forces, the only way we can actually project power against foreign nations these days is by hoping their senior politicians slip up on the steps of number 10.

If we like you, our PM will warn your PM about the dodgy step. If we don't like you, you get no warning!

Guilty of negligence!

To not repair the steps too.
