    Just listened to a radio programme which claimed that the UK is the 6th largest spender on defence in the world already.

    You can imagine a future where the UK’s completely gone to shit internally: the infrastructure’s broken, roads so potholed that you can’t drive, mass homelessness, no medical treatment available, no fresh water, food shortages, power cuts, everything closed down or in the process of shutting but surrounded by an arsenal of cutting edge nukes, drones, battleships, submarines costing £billions.

    Defending what?
