Keir Starmer Under Pressure to Increase Spending on Defence
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 07. 2024
- The Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under pressure to increase spending on defence following a hospital bombing in Kiev yesterday. Britain should train a 'citizen army' ready to fight a war in the future, the head of the Army has said. General Sir Patrick Sanders warned that an increase in reserve forces alone 'would not be enough'.

no to war yes to feeding the poor elderly and starving children stop spending our tax money on wars for other people
Definitely true
Not spending money, throwing it away. 10 billion pound a year for EU membership now can't raise that money ? If we were still in the EU we'd manage it ? Two of the worse papers Mail and Mirror
This is about spending money to prepare for a war that could be coming to our shores
Yeah, who cares about kids and the weak, dying and elderly in other places? Give it to us and by us I mean the elite, I need more houses to rent out!
@@Theyorkshirepirlo No this is about lining the pockets of the elite with tax money
Disgraceful excuse of journalism
Shut it comrade
@@IamDude2you're the literal definition of an NPC
why are we always fighting America and Israels wars? Why are we not looking after our own?
Because Starmer is a little puppy for the WEF and his masters , hand picked to follow his masters orders
I am 100% agreed with your statement
Media is so out of touch... the pressure should be to spend LESS on defence and work towards ending both israel and ukraine war, stop wasting money on wars that don't concern us.
Exactly. Plus we're nowhere near Russia and a tiny country in comparison.
Spot on!
What a ridiculous comment , if there are no wars the media would have nothing to report and fade away,............ On second thoughts you could be onto something there.
Stop wasting time ‘stopping’ wars that don’t concern us.
@@donnag5820 exactly! We wouldn’t need a defence budget increase if we stopped involving ourselves in things that are not our problem
Presstituties!
I think there is more pressure to stop the boats and the illegal economic migrants!
You don’t think.
Is there? I seem to remember the party that campaigned on doing that losing in a landslide?
You think he's gonna do that!? 😂
Think you need to double check the figures old pal
@NAk-si3mk but they did nothing about it, apart from a joke scheme that cost a few hundred million and didn't send one person back.
STUFF THAT.
Stop strutting about pretending we're a player on the global stage and FIX OUR PROBLEMS AT HOME.
We are, that’s why and it’s about defence. Leftie melt
Why not spend more on diplomacy!. Does UK really think they can scare Russian even with a budget 10X that of Russia!
Russia is confused! Doesn’t understand why there is a great up roar when they invade, but no uproar when the Middle East invade Europe! I bet he is thinking the west is so whitophobic
It's all theatre , a circus
This is happening in Gaza every day
When did a precision missile hit a hospital that didn't have combattants using it as a base?
@@JudePi-jx7yo It’s odd how they can never prove it when all these hospitals are combatant bases.
@@JudePi-jx7yo Like when they found a stash of weapons in an MRI machine? Or failed to find tunnels under Al Shefa? Or the remains of doctors with their hands bound behind their backs and holes in the backs of their heads?
Gaza nick name is “Self-Inflicted” 😂
@jujutrini8412 it's not odd. It's know that hamas use schools, hospitals etc for cover. Old news. And I don't care that they do. It's not like they're for the average "Palestinian"
Cut waste, cut wasteful private contracts and consultants. What is the need to pay consultants to tell you things you already know needed to be done.
Yes we’ve been safe until 5 days ago and there is now a threat that hasn’t been there for 14 years. Doubtless the tories will scream like stuck pigs if any tax goes up.
Yesterday, I watched an interview with one of the organizers of the protests in Barcelona. The Spanish woman said tourism has become a bad thing because Airbnb's are numerous and that has caused local rents and housing affordability to skyrocket. Housing, for locals, is out of reach. That is a major concern for the local Catalonians.
Unemployment is another. They need tourism.
It’s going on here as well. Cornwall is suffering because of this as well as people making house prices unaffordable for locals because rich people keep buying second homes on the coast. 🤦♀️
Love cornish pasties 😊
@@jujutrini8412 wait until tourists decide to go elsewhere, then you'll be complaining when all the businesses close down and Cornwall is a ghost town.
Spend more for the growth of the nation.
Printing money is not investment
@@johnnagle7702 neither is ignoring our problems and letting things get worse.
@@You-tw4zs I don't advocate ignoring problems trouble is the fiat money system is so damaged its impossible to repair.The dollar as a world currency is on its last legs and a new monetary system will be be imposed on us.Unlike Rachel Reeves I understand the history of money.Buckle up tough times ahead for us in the west as the currency loses what little value it has left
Automation and cut benefits
@@davidcooks2379yes start with the royal family and mp expenses.
is this outrage out of love for humanity or race!. Same media didn't say anything when it happened to Palestine
Exactly. They’re appalling
When our own country is in a total mess I prefer to fund the essential public services like the nhs.
The NHS?….The 7th largest employer in the World. It’s caused its own mess and throwing more money at it will not change anything.
Theirs starving children and elderly people here in the uk but hay lets send money else's where sounds right
Ah, here we go pressure on Kier well yes all because of the total mess the Tories have made , simple.
He's just as bad.
@@jake751 six days in office to 14 years no comparison
@@user-vs3ku4xk9cwell u don't know him personally then😂
Oh and you do 🤣
It isn't defence, when the troops are in another country it is attack 🙄
Why not get overpaid news(!) presenters to do 3 years in the forces and lead by example and be the first ones in if needed.
I don't remember this being discussed, on GMB, b4 Labour was elected until Rishi made it an election gimmick with his National Service pledge
How fast the subject was changed when Gazan genocide was mentioned
😴
Because it's really a genocide of Jews and Arabs by Hamas
Really. It's all that has been talked about for months. There is no genocide only Pallywood propaganda.
Shut up Andrew Pierce
Need more defence for children with this starmer in charge. After he was close with Jim’ll fix it
there is a war in eastern europe... so we spend more on defense? no. we spend more on our OWN people. for our OWN interests. talk about defence? bring all royal navy fleets back to the english channel.
Defend what? To late for uk
If you can't afford a 2.5 increase in military spending, then what? take money from the NHS? Let the boats keep coming. Charity begins at home as they say.
£8 million a day could be saved by turning illegal immigrants back and not providing hotel accommodation for them!
We don’t need to spend on military we need to spend on our services and become more like Switzerland.
How are those people gonna earn their money? I recall my aunt in Spain & Irish treated terribly cos she spoke English.
Go after companies who haven’t paid there fair share in tax and use that money to boost defence spending then also use the profits from the oil and gas companies
Multinational corporations are hoarding our money . We need to make them pay for the benefit of using our market! They need to contribute for the welfare of the people of this nation.
And Reform support this.
No they don't
Yep they do. Reform somehow have gaslit some people into believing they're different in some way in touch with the ppl they're not. The biggest donor to Reform is a Muslim you know the ppl Reform are telling us to hate. They're Tory it was a toss up whether Farage went to the Tories if they'd let him be leader he would have. Now Bravermans weighing up whether to run for Tory leader or go downstairs to Reform. Not one UK political Party is any different they all voted for everything, except Rwanda, the Tories did they all agreed on Covid they agree on Israel, Ukraine and the idea of perpetual war.
Who gives af
When has labour ever cared about our military?
You forgot when Blair went invaded the middle east??
Tony blair illegal war in Iraq 🇮🇶
This lot ain't Labour....you're dealing with the Uniparty Stammer Faction of the Globalist Criminal Collective!!!
The Presstitutes now reveal all the stuff that would have made the turkeys hesitate to vote for Fuehrer Christmas Stammer!!!
When has Labour ever cared about anything? except War like Mr Blair
I am a Royal Irish Regiment and Ulster Defence Regiment vetran
There were 11 battalions raised in the seventies first from 7 battalions then raised to 11.
And after the merger between the Royal Irish Rangers and the UDR ,we were always told that we would retrain as a conventional battalion, but that was knocked on the head , An American General said on a TV interview that he hated to say this but the British Army were not fit for purpose, a heck of a difference from the Army we had on op telic 1 and 2 and on op herrick, we need a good standing Army, national service is the answer but unfortunately it won't happen in Northern Ireland this time as well
Britain seriously needs to increase its defence spending to at least 3%. In terms of military capability we are quickly falling down the global rankings. If you cannot defend your nation there will be no nation to defend.
We can't defend a county let alone a country, if we go to war, we lose in 10 days.
Indeed, and we must invest in own own production of drones and other equipment that requires minimum number of people to operate, and relieves people from being put at risk in the combat zone
Could it be safe to say that any push for war would not be supported by the population who’d consider themselves as being used as foot soldiers pawns and fodder to fight a futile war? Who is to say that Russia will be an aggressor should it recapture the Ukraine into the Soviet Union. Has not it been the Russian stance from the get go that it doesn’t require aggressions from having foreign war mongering and foreign bases installed into the region. Isn’t that what all of this is about. How many times can Britain fit into Russia for Britain to fear Russia since Second World War. So sad how power hungry individuals have made the world an unsafe environment for all living things given the potential for the use of frying weapons, equally with having unstable people at the helm it is more like likely than not we all shall fry…isn’t that the reality.
You got stocks in the defence industry or just an easily led astray rube?
Labour same as the tories, same wings on the same bird policies are unchanged they run paralell
We have a similar issue where I live in Kent. Any new homes built are often bought to be used as air bnb’s.
Starmer already has plans to raise taxes on pensions, he doesn't need to be encouraged to spend any more.
Your going to have to. Sorry, but "austerity" killed Britain and made it a middling power. Now more and more France and America is Dominating the United Kingdoms and the agenda. That cannot be allowed to happen.
Not heard of the triple lock then.
Is unsafe even walk.🤦 they cut nr of police ... safety not existing...
Maybe the lack of recruitment in the Armed Forces is due to lack of patriotism in the country. Its well known recruits join because they want to fight for and protect our country and values- i have to question if they believe the country is worth protecting considering its current state
More on defence how about more on our country and stop the war racket
How much taxpayers money does he spend protecting his children from the people he prevented being prosecuted
Sort the immigration off take pressure off the Brits
What has FARAGE got to say about this? His admiration of Putin is on record
He needs to start on our coast and protect our borders and the British people
Funny how Tories have now noticed a conflict that started in 2014 is actually happening, what has changed?
Just think of all the things we could do to help people if all our leaders stopped starting wars…
Starmer must not give in to arms lobbies and arms companies to increase expenditure!
If you condemn russia you should should condemn hamnas ...along with all aspects of war situations that have happened for the last 50 yrs
Donalt Trump threatening to not defend countries that don't contribute actually improves defense. Because as a result of this threat the countries started to invest in defense.
He should hike his demand to 3% or even more. What else will make these countries take their responsibilities seriously? Why are they feeling entitled to US help that has been spending 3% of its GDP all this time while others were spending their money on russian gas?
Dear sue what about the patients in Gaza where were your comments then shame in you all
we need a defence, dont you realise when you all sound like Neville Chamberline
Labour will increase tax, to pay for the military
Missile strike : looking at what happen in Gaza to understand what’s a strike look like.
The best way to 'help' Ukraine would be to get Zelenski, whose term as President has now expired but has been extended indefinitely until the war is over using emergency powers, to hold an election to see if the Ukrainian population want to continue with this forever war or sit down at the negotiating table and bring it to an end.
Without minimising any suffering in Ukraine, why is the same sympathy not shown to the inhabitants of Gaza where Israel has destroyed ALL the hospitals?
It is not mentioned in this video that the Russian ambassador to the UN has offered a different version of events. Why when Israel destroy a hospital is their explanation so readily accepted but when Russia offers an alternative explanation it is ignored. It appears that everything Russia and Hamas say are lies but everything Israel and Ukraine says is the gospel truth.
What about the children hospital in gaza
EWEKAY MILLYTERRY APPEASE YANKEEELAD
What about gazza???????
Palestine hospital didnt see this guy come and speak out then muppet
How Can Starmer Increase The Spending? There's Nothing Left In The Budget, Rishi Sunak Spent It All On The Illegal Migants,
1/Hotel Accomadations, 2/New Smartphones, 3/New Bikes. 4/New Clothing & Benefits, 5/Etc = Nothing For Defence?
Why ? Ask why would russia want to invade a bankrupt country 😆
More fund required for our hero for their selflessness commitment
🥱🥱🥱
That was the last government set at 3.5% ?
Feels magical to be surrounded by russian bot farms doing their thing in a comments section. Anything to avoid conscription.
Same as Blair, he will take us to war.
Spend it on WHAT ? Mad and I don't think Starmer will dance to others!!
He'll dance for America and Israel
Your all mad, people just want to live their lives, not bomb each other to smithereens 😢
More war more money
Yeah brace up
Blame those who live in Holborn & St Pancras - the only people to vote for this man directly...
He lost 18000 votes since 2019 election. The ones who did vote starmer will regret it.
Yp unfortunately raise taxes
Calling a General Election at this point is like throwing the towel in the first bout of the national championship.
Clearly the wets have given the Damocles Sword to the other side, thus turned their back upon responsibilities. So clearly there will eventually be mud slinging of monumental proportions looking to regain the gauntlet without having to wield the hand that currently holds the sword.
And Gaza ...... with the Lancet report .....
We already have to ukraines defence
2 animals in the middle
Mr. Andrew P is the best political commentator of our time.
Is that you Adolf??
Yes, defence spending does matter and does make a difference to national defence and more importantly our donations to ukraine which also matter, holding back russia means everything to britain because when russia is done with ukraine we are next, we need to be prepared for this scenario, putin is proving how much of a madman he is right now and wont hesitate to target NATO next, lets tackle this now while we still can a beat russia.
First job protect us first
Only a handful of European countries pay their agreed amount. Welcome to the European mind set……stuff each other at every opportunity.😵💫🤦♂
There are more important things than war especially if you have a weak economy
@@sunseeker9581 Not when you are about to be annihilated, child.
@@lestrem11stop watching trash properganda news.
Can we send this journalist who lives supporting conservatives
We should increade defense spending and slash benefits
How about making those on benifits in to soldiers and solve two problems, lets face it both lots just sit around most of the time.
@@johnfisher697starting with the royal family
Defence is very important. Starmer should spend
Delusional nonsense. You're living in the past Henry. The UK isn't a world power anymore, just a broke windy country off the coast of France. The country's broke, there's no money for military toys.
Blackrock and vanguard need money
