More details
Even today we are in a war that we are by no means winning, somehow the Goverment thinks that we need to lose 20,000 soldiers and still carry on fighting.
In these modern times with unstable countries such as Afganistan, Iran and North Korea, a strong military is essential to keep Britan safe and protect other countries which may not have the ability to keep themselves safe.
