The Breaking Point

Britain's armed forces will be relegated to second-string status and major weapons programmes will be scrapped unless a massive increase in the defence budget occurs.

That's what comes when a military that the government secretly despises is worked to death and starved of funds or even basic consideration.

Szondy's Rule: When a country's defence spending is less than 51 percent of the national budget, then something is seriously wrong on one side or the other of the equation.
