@skynews: Defence minister Luke Pollard has defended the government's decision to leave an almost £5bn funding gap in the defence investment plan. The government published the long-overdue funding plan yesterday - and last night, it was revealed that £4.7bn of the £15bn uplift is currently unfunded, and is listed in the documents as "to be funded at Budget 2026". Sky's @sophy.ridge questioned the defence readiness and industry minister on Mornings with Ridge and Frost #defence #lukepollard #politics #labour #skynews
We are an island surrounded by water and have very few to none war ships.

Hs2 is about jobs and excuse to pump money into the economy. better than quantitative easing by far. Military version just makes it an option to use warfare over peaceful resolutions .
