As a British tax payer i want the government to stop giving my assets away, and then telling me you need more money for equipment.

[@user-hh8tf4tb9q]

Same old rubbish, the tories had 5000+ days in power and reduced our armed services by 30,000 and you cannot expect KS to replace them in 6-days. Like anything the tories put us in this situation, a good example is the cuts to the police of 20,000 and only replaced that number 13-years later, unfortunately we do not have that time with our armed services, so a recruitment drive is needed, cut out the diversity/wokeness and start producing more to fill our armoury.

[@Jeremiah59]

Net zero is a fantasy. That money should be put into defence,
