...major government review warns.

// The UK must prepare for the possibility of a “wartime scenario” on home soil, a major new government review has warned.... we do not need to look too far into our history for an example of a whole-of-society effort, motivated by a collective will to keep each other safe. We can mobilise that spirit again and use it both for our national security and the building of our country.”//

If the government thinks it can re-create the spirit of the blitz it needs to think again. This country is a very long way from what it was and I just can't see that happening. It is, however, purchasing 12 new fighter jets which can be equipped with nuclear bombs, and join Nato's airborne nuclear mission. It hasn't said where the money has come from.

Personally, i applaud the purchase of the 12 new fighter jets. Strength in numbers, and all that.

As long as there not based at Brize Norton.Part of starmers trade deal with the US.

You cant just buy 12 fighters off the shelf so my guess these were already ordered and money allocated.

As for a war on home soil, this is what many of us have been saying for a long time but derided by the Trotts on here.

The enemy is withing and 2TK is importing them by the boatload -literally. The planes will be useless agains this.

If I was to put money on a fight I would say much of it would be cyber based. With Mad Millibands Nut zero also attacks on what infra we have. Offshore wind farms not looking so good now are they Red Ed?

I fail to see how purchasing 12 nuclear bomb carrying aircraft is relevent to preparing for war on home soil.

I'd far rather they "actively prepared" (whatever that means as I don't know how one can "inactively prepare") to prevent small boats from entering UK waters and their human cargo being offloaded on to lifeboats and Border Force vessels.

yes judge I'd rather they actively dealt with the invasion that's taking place right now with the assistance of the border farce and the Royal National Ferry service.

A nation should always be so prepared.

Failing to plan is effectively planning to fail.
