Defence review: Spend more on SAS and drones - Cameron
Well that's the SDSR sorted, what do the various SDSR teams do now? At least this time the SDSR will be based on yesterday's war rather than deficit reduction like the last Review. Still nothing like situating the appreciation.

Michael Fallon alluded as much on this morning's Today programme, suggesting / hinting that elements of the new Joint Security Fund might well go towards the Defence budget where it was thought that SIA activities contributed to Defence objectives. It almost caught Sarah Montague on the hop as if she had to to do a double take having rumbled the SoS.
