Chapeau to John Healy for sticking to his principles and putting the country before his own career.

Let's hope Starmer and Reeves listen to him and start funding defence properly. It's a dangerous world out there, folks!

Also, isn't it nice to see a minister resign over a point of principle rather than because he got caught fiddling his expenses or shagging an intern?

Honestly, how much money could be saved by cutting stuff we don't need from the Military Industrial Complex when thousands of drones and the pilots to fly them are what we need.
Expensive American jets, tanks and APCs that don't really work but make shareholders rich, shit like that.

We don't have to starve ourselves to defend ourselves, that's idiotic and right-wing (but that's Labour!)

Labour can either defend the nation or sell it out to the highest bidder. What do we think the Party of Peter Mandelson is doing?

A weak, indecisive leader, the man is a Neville Chamberlain for the 21st Century, an Epstein Class stooge who cannot think for himself.
We know Starmer is shit on defence because we've had foreign instigated pogroms on our streets for two days straight and he's not done anything, no COBRA meetings, nothing.

"Whites Will Be Whites" ...innit?
