  1. This would be the same John Healey who announced cuts in British military spending not so long ago, I assume?

  2. Whatever your opinion of Zelensky, the idea that Ukraine can actually defeat Russia is about as credible as that of Belgium defeating Germany in 1940. Like it or not, this war must end by negotiation.

  3. I think that Larry the Downing Street cat is comparatively rational, although I suspect he isn't allowed near the Cabinet for that very reason.

  4.  @WhichDoctor1  As the UK Defence Journal put it, after Healey's November cuts :- 'Defence Secretary John Healey has announced the retirement of several ageing military assets, including Royal Navy ships, drones, and helicopters, as part of a broader effort to modernise the UK’s Armed Forces and address significant financial pressures in the defence budget.' The broader effort is simply Mr. Healey saying that there will be 'Jam Tomorrow' for the Armed Forces, as these 'modernisations are, in reality, several years away.
