The defence community are sounding the alarm over Britain's crumbling defences.
Former Head of the British Army, General Sir Peter Wall, joins Julia to lay bare the stark reality: the UK has gone from NATO's leading European nation to the bottom of the pile, with a defence funding gap so severe that the military is expecting to make significant cuts.
With Keir Starmer limping toward a NATO summit empty-handed, and Andy Burnham preparing for a coronation without a plan, is there hope of a safe Britain?
Former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott pulls no punches on Britain's decline, the net-zero obsession strangling economic dynamism, and why a country that once assembled 40 warships in 48 hours now takes two weeks to deploy a single destroyer.
Also: the grooming gang inquiry expands to London — so what does that mean for Sadiq Khan's repeated denials? Julia and Benedict Spencer dig in.
