The pressure is piling up on Keir Starmer’s new government to increase defence spending as a matter of urgency, The Times’s defence editor Larisa Brown tells Matt Chorley on #TimesRadio.

_I fail to see why we need to increase our defence budget, when we don't live in Ukraine, Europe, or the Middle East._ Oh! Because of Starmers wide open borders policy... Of course...

It is probably generally better for Western democracies to spend more money on defense than on similarly costly immigration.

Better for western democracies to stay out of all this nonsense and protect their own borders

One of the former military top brass interviewed on Times Radio pointed out that while building up our forces in peacetime to deter a potential agressor is expensive, failing to do so and ending up at war would cost even more. By the end of WW2 Britain was spending 46 percent of GDP on its forces.

Good thing stopping the feeding of Western military industrial complexes and US corporations like BlackRock and Lockheed Martin is the best compromise in the meantime. We should be pushing for peace in Gaza and Ukraine.
