Not many will be aware that Lords Cricket Ground was a reception centre for Bomber Command crews in the Second World War. For many young men it was their first point of contact with their military service. So many went on to lose their lives in the air.

At 2 minutes to 11 o’clock on the 11th day of the 11th month, Reform’s defence spokesperson decided to post this hit piece👇. Aside from his disgraceful timing, his claims are ridiculous. His first foray into defence commentary looks like a lame duck. Let’s explore why? 🧵1/12

Read my article on why the move of refuelling tankers from Suffolk to Germany should serve as a wake-up call for Wes Streeting. 👇

Angus, as an ex Regiment officer should be acutely aware of the methods for protecting large aircraft. As no aircraft have been attacked, the intelligence community should be congratulated on spotting threats before they can attack. But not all threats are foreign….

The US retreat from British bases is a terrible indictment of our country’s defence.

If our closest ally feels compelled to disperse its assets because it cannot be confident that British territory is secure from Iranian-backed disruption or attack we should be extremely concerned indeed.

Hegseth’s impeachment has been referred to committee rather than a vote after the House splits along Party lines. It leaves an interesting few months as we wait for the mid-term swap out to change the dynamics. It could be the worst possible outcome for the US except for one man.

The U.S. House has just voted to refer Rep. Thomas Massie’s articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to committee, blocking a floor vote on impeachment for now.
