Description
With war raging in the Middle East and Keir Starmer under fire at Prime Minister's Questions for not going fast enough to increase defence spending, Camilla and Tim speak to Gen Sir Richard Barrons, a former commander of the Joint Forces Command and author of the Government’s 2025 strategic defence review.
He says that Britain needs to be spending billions more on our military, but that the Labour Government is choosing to spend money on welfare instead.
