The UK kas nukes, they don’t need an army. There’s never been a country with nukes that’s had their mainland invaded.

Nukes don’t matter when the UK isn’t being directly invaded. They can never use nukes in a war that does not involve their possible destruction.

Agree. It’s an easily defended island, the days of having a standing army of 100k are well over.

It’s going to be AI and drones, not boots on the ground.
