A personal opinion, they probably couldn't argue the case, but the Government needs to increase defence spending to something closer to 1990 level. On top of that, the approach to and method of recruitment needs to go back to basics. They might improve the retention rate and who knows, the standing ambitions of maintaining and operating what little we now have might just be possible.
