recent defence debate in the Commons, when, at one time there were only twelve MPs in the chamber of which only one was a Labour backbencher, it is encouraging to note that the much-needed debate on our defence capabilities is nevertheless under way.
In this respect,
The Daily Telegraph is to be applauded for leading the way, with a long feature by
Thomas Harding, responding to the speech by
General Sir David Richards at RUSI.
