John Healey has resigned.

His letter of resignation takes no prisoners....

This new era for defence required further investment through the defence investment plan. The excellent and extensive cross-government work that completed in January – overseen by you, me and the chancellor – confirmed the scale of the challenge and the rising demands on defence.

Since then, you have been unable, and the Treasury has been unwilling, to commit the resources that the nation needs to defend the country at this time of rising threats.


Starmer and Reeves both kneecapped.

Defence of the realm is the Prime Minister's No.1 task.

The public would be happy with a few torpedo boats in the channel, wouldn't cost a fortune.

Looks like they are saying Healey wanted cuts to Schools and the NHS to fund defence.

Meanwhile, benefits for shirkers and incomers are sacrosanct.

I doubt very much that he did say that. Its probably just a lie by Starmer to try to maintain support from his own MPs.

It's the chancellor's job to divvy up the money according to need.

Nothing takes a higher priority than defence.

We need to stop buying fighter jets for £1 billion apiece and start making drones for £300 each.

Ukraine has shown the way warfare is going.

You can't pretend defence is important when you pay invaders to arrive, come on.
