The fuss that's being made over 0.32% of #GDP in the next #Parliament in 4 years' time is astonishing, & assumes - falsely - that #Labour will still be in power in 2030 to determine the level of #defence #spending, when, at the rate things are going, it's far more likely to be #ReformUK, God help us. Of course, if #proportionalrepresentation was to be introduced & implemented in time for the next #GeneralElection, that would be FAR less likely!

𝘓𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘳 promises a "𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘞𝘢𝘳-𝘭𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭" boost to defence spending without raising taxes, but the math just doesn't protect us. Hitting their 𝟯% GDP ambition means finding an extra £𝟭𝟲 𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻+ a year.
