At a time of heightened global uncertainty, the continued rise of China and after four years of U.S. President Donald Trump’s international diplomacy, Britain’s 2016 vote to leave the European Union has thrown its own role and global influence into doubt.

Yes they cant depend on the United States for anything anymore since we are rated a third world nation now because of trumps being so unstable now
Anything to distract from the fleecing the did to the public purse, giving dodgy contracts to their mates in a time of crisis. And nobody will pay for the fraud, and it was fraud. Items delivered were not fit for purpose.
Of course..with a crime they committing they need huge army to keep them safe and avoid the punishment
Hope it covers viruses and hacking both gov institutions and banks. - More tanks for army games on the Russian border are no good.
