Acc to @Ipsos, 55% of the UK don't want an increase in defence spending. Yet try to find these voices in the media. Nowhere to be seen. My latest for @LRB in response to John Healey's resignation & the forthcoming international @STWuk anti-war conference https://t.co/7nvH5cg6On

Amongst the weapons programmes that the MoD want to fund with the DIP is for 12 nuclear-capable F-35A that launch US nuclear bombs. Britain is already the world's third highest spender on nuclear weapons...

Ex-Nato GS & arms industry advisor Lord Robertson lambasts govt’s ‘corrosive complacency’ over military spending. We agree – for VERY different reasons
· UK is 3rd highest nuclear weapons spender
· $12.6 billion in 2025, up 17% on 2024
We say: Abandon nuclear expansion Invest in peace not war
