Increase defence funding to strengthen and expand all UK military forces.

Summary

I would like the Government to increase the defence budget to rebuild and strengthen the UK’s Armed Forces. The United Kingdom faces growing global instability, and increasing security threats. A strong and capable military is essential to deter aggression and protect national sovereignty. The UK Armed Forces are currently in a dire state, with reduced personnel numbers, ageing equipment, and increasing operational demands. Increased defence funding is urgently needed to rebuild force numbers, modernise equipment, and restore military readiness so the UK can effectively defend itself.
