I'm sceptical as to how long he can last without coming to some sort of decision; good or bad...the majority of his backbenchers, POTUS, USCoS, defence select committee, NATO, CoDS etc, US Secretary of State, and the governments of every Baltic nation are applying pressure and waiting to hear the immediate direction of UK defence policy. Not to mention those interested in our long term defence posture. IMHO, this is a critical juncture in British history; does the UK choose to step back from world affairs comprehensively, or do we choose to take an active role (with appropriate funding!!!)?
