Launch the "national conversation on defence and security" by 1st August 2026
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 16 April 2026
A core recommendation of the Strategic Defence Review there should be a national conversation on defence and security. Providing a proper strategy and programme, in line with the SDR recommendations, for the conversation to springboard from and be sustained by. The UK has not had to consider war reaching our shores and skies for many years. We now must. The national conversation is the first step to being ready for the new type of war we see in Ukraine today, and to deter our enemies. It is a core recommendation of the SDR, accepted by the Government, and PM. But time is running out. As a regular citizen who has been to Ukraine, with teenage children, I feel our society is not properly aware and prepared for the risks ahead, and maybe not far ahead.

Prioritise defence by committing to defence funding at 10% of GDP
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 15 April 2026
We want the Government to commit to 10% of GDP for defence spending and deliver this increase within months not years. Decisions about defence funding should not be taken by the Treasury, which we believe is not fit for purpose and unwilling properly to fund our defence. Spending more than 10% of GDP on welfare while underfunding defence is, we feel, a bad joke. The Home Office states that “The first duty of the government is to keep citizens safe and the country secure”. The Government has a duty of care to protect us and our Armed Forces and we are being failed. Lord Robertson, ex-Secretary General of NATO, called out ‘corrosive complacency’ among politicians towards defence spending. We fear that party politics is more important than our safety and that of the Armed Forces. If there is no increase in defence spending to 10% of GDP the current Government should step aside.
