Reality bites for the future of the Armed Forces | Sitrep podcast

The Chief of Defence Staff refuses to say cuts are coming, but has confirmed there isn’t enough money for everything they want to do to make the Armed Forces war-ready and transformed for a high-tech future. Professor Michael Clarke and former RAF Deputy Director of Operations Greg Bagwell explain the “hard choices” once again facing defence, with the vital Defence Investment Plan still not ready. We’ve also learned that there isn’t a national defence plan for the event of war, but one is being worked on. Sian Grzeszczyk Melbourne explains why new rules making it easier to call up veterans are a key part of that. And Alex Baker MP tells Kate Gerbeau why she’s lobbying for a new Defence Investment and Resilience bank, and how she thinks it could ease the money worries. Kate Gerbeau presents, with expert analysis from Professor Michael Clarke. #bfbsforcesnews #forcesnews #news #podcast #uk #army #navy #airforce #military #specialforces #politics #trump #russia #nato #ukraine #veteran 00:00 - On Sitrep this week 01:01 - Is the Defence Review unravelling? 17:51 - Why no National Defence plan? 27:55 - What's Defence Investment Bank? 43:24 - Mindful soldier and life lessons Subscribe to Forces News: http://bit.ly/1OraazC Check out our website: https://www.forcesnews.com Facebook:   / forcestv   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/forcesnews/...
