Labour says government made ‘mistake’ on defence policy

Shadow cabinet minister Lisa Nandy says the government “made a mistake” in its Integrated Review 2021, which set out the UK’s international policy objectives until 2025.

Whilst defence secretary Ben Wallace is calling for greater defence spending, Ms Nandy said: “It isn’t just a question of whether we raise defence spending; it’s a question of whether we spend that money wisely.” Report by Jonesia.
