| 1640325598420639753 | @UKDefJournal Seems to me the lesson that should be being learned from UKR is that logistical depth is not something on which to take peacetime risk. It’s easier to say “digitisation” than “ increased capital investment in ammunition and attritional resilience” which requires actual resources. | 1 |

| 1638154409937870849 | @UKDefJournal Why are HMG happy to pay US companies huge amounts to refurbish Spanish manufacturing facilities that can’t produce a quality or compliant product? While closing down British manufacturing companies who produced outstanding A vehicles? | 12 |

| 1638142639777120256 | @UKDefJournal This is truly an appalling waste of taxpayers money. How did they fix the massive noise and vibration problems? By putting better springs in the drivers seat and giving him better ear defenders. That is not a solution. This contract is already 6 years late and will be 12 years. | 7 |
