Britain has literally no money for the military, a defence contractor has said, slamming Labour for leaving the UK in grave danger. GB News reports that the armed forces lack crucial funding to modernise properly.
According to GB News, a senior defence contractor who wished to remain anonymous has delivered a scathing assessment of Britain’s military preparedness. The insider warned that the armed forces are operating under severe financial constraints that prevent them from keeping pace with modern defence demands.
The contractor specifically highlighted a critical lack of resources for technological advancement, stating that there is “virtually no investment going into autonomous systems”. This shortfall leaves the nation vulnerable at a time when military technology is rapidly transforming across the globe.
A spokesman for the firm went further, describing the situation as a “national emergency”. The representative argued that the political establishment, and particularly Labour, fundamentally fails to comprehend the scale of the crisis despite renewed and escalating threats from Russia.
Defence analysts have repeatedly pointed out that failing to invest in cutting-edge capabilities risks leaving British service personnel underequipped on future battlefields. The Ministry of Defence faces mounting pressure to address these profound capability gaps as international tensions persist.
The ongoing debate underscores deep concerns within the defence manufacturing sector regarding resource allocation and strategic prioritisation under the current administration.

Healey stated last week the shortfall in defence spending is because of the fall in immigration. He went on to say the fall in Doctors Engineers and other highly educated falling numbers caused a shortfall.
Who the fook is he trying to fool. His statement falls flat on three points. There is no fall in immigration and they are not Doctors or Engineers, add to that my cat has an higher IQ than most of them.
More gaslighting from the Marxists.
