What a question! How long have you got? nothing will change until we get a government which understands the importance of defence. Whilst successive PMs/Cabinets favour so-called celebs (think Blair) and place great importance on throwing money at benefits/health/education, but without discovering the causes of why those department are short of money, defence with take a low priority. However, without adequate defence, they may be no health, education or benefits. So what would I personally like to see change? A wiser government which is not obsessed with
PR & celebs. At the very least, let's have a few ex good military in the government. Notice I say 'good' as not all ex military MPs are good.
