Here's my reply to the @jeremycorbyn "peace" op-ed in the @guardian - the Labour left is at a crossroads just as in the 1930s... We're not going to stop totalitarian aggression with abstractions 👇🏽

Yup! Because the West has no strategy with Uikraine

We’re modernising the @BritishArmy’s heavy artillery capability. A 🇬🇧 🇩🇪 collaboration will see a 52-calibre artillery system known as Mobile Fires Platform (MFP) mark a step change towards a deeper industrial and wider defence relationship between the two nations.
Does the Army hate sleep? Or do we just promote a lot of leaders who think sleep is for the weak? #PointofDeparture news.clearancejobs.com/2024/04/23/pun…

Iran and Israel’s escalation of their armed conflict is a reminder of what can happen when adversaries do not understand each other. Understanding our adversaries plummets as battle lines harden. Breaking this cycle is essential, writes @SuzanneRaine2. rusi.org/explore-our-re…
It's 2024. Surely we don't have to still explain what submarines are... But yes, Iron Dome is certainly not the answer to the UKs AD gap

@EdArnold_RUSI @dissident_the Wouldn’t a new Trades Corps be a great way of improving the entire Defence estate while creating hundreds of new trade apprentices. Could be akin to US Corps of Engineers. Wouldn’t even have to be uniformed. Localised. Great offer to young people not wanting £70k uni debt.
@EdArnold_RUSI If these numbers are correct, the correct comparison might either be "smallest since it lost the American War of Independence" or "smallest since Napoleon was a toddler". And even that ignores East India Company troops… daysackmedia.co.uk/resources/the-…
So People were not at the heart of DCPR23? You can easily spend the money on sorting out the appalling accommodation, infrastructure and pay related problems in the military, stemming the tide of leavers and therefore having an effective fighting force to go in the new kit.

One of my least liked phrases atm 'British Army smaller than since Napoleon' (should be Napoleonic wars...). totally meaningless and overused comparsion. Led me to think, what unit size of the current army could have won Waterloo, only with organic assets? A company?
The announcement that the UK will commit to spending 2.5% of GDP on defence by 2030 is welcome news for the Ministry of Defence, however, the 'government will need to agree how to fund its increased commitment to defence', writes @MChalmers_RUSI. rusi.org/explore-our-re…

What's also interesting about that period is the speed in which the army was built up (more than doubled in size between the French Revolutionary Wars and the end of the Napoleonic Wars). We should focus more on force reconstitution - that is, the ability to stay in the fight.

I couldn't be more excited about this news. Boxer RCH155 is an excellent system that combines the proven components of Boxer and PzH 2000. Britain and Germany together will accelerate its introduction into service. Above all, it will give our armies an edge on the battlefield.
The @BritishArmy is procuring Boxer-based RCH155 as its enduring Mobile Fires Platform. The artillery system will be built in 🇬🇧+🇩🇪 supporting hundreds of jobs nationwide. Defence Minister @jcartlidgemp recently witnessed the artillery gun in action. 👉 ow.ly/MKzc50RmW7W.
Almost a decade later, I've still not still really made up mind whether he's personally simple-minded, or only interested in persuading people who are equally simple-minded. The answer is probably both.
In the aftermath of horror, we need political leaders with the ability to facilitate de-escalation and peace. Instead, their thirst for war is endangering us all. My piece for the @guardian. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Boxer RCH 155mm wins. Best choice for us.

The excuses were: They'll lead to WW3. Ukraine doesn't need them. Ukraine can't figure out how to use them. They're old and may not even work (my favorite).
I have to go back to the old statements of all those escalation theorists who have been explaining to us for the last two years that the Biden administration is doing a very smart thing by refusing to deliver ATACMS to Ukraine - now we know that they have no clue about winning…
@LogisticThinker @EdArnold_RUSI Solved: Shocking state of much MoD accommodation Solved: UK building trades shortages Solved: Lack of high-status jobs available to non-academic but energetic and keen school-leavers Solved: How to spend a couple of hundred million on UK defence without ____ing it up a wall.
@EdArnold_RUSI This. Easily done in year. Probably someone from Treasury keeping quiet about there being no RDEL in the uplift.
@EdArnold_RUSI @dissident_the Wouldn’t a new Trades Corps be a great way of improving the entire Defence estate while creating hundreds of new trade apprentices. Could be akin to US Corps of Engineers. Wouldn’t even have to be uniformed. Localised. Great offer to young people not wanting £70k uni debt.
If there's one thing you need to know it's this: Tories always cut Defence. Occasionally you might think that they have changed. Perhaps they have made a big shiny announcement. But if you wait a bit, this will prove to be false hope. Because Tories always cut Defence.
Have now seen the govt briefing on how this is “fully funded”. It’s a joke. Asserts defence spending of 2.3% of GDP was the baseline ie so only need to find .14% GDP extra by 28/29. In real world even delivering that baseline will require even deeper cuts to other department.
