The UK is unprepared for any kind of military confrontation.
US President Donald J. Trump was criticized for calling his weak European allies ‘paper tigers,’ but he was, as usual, right.
In the case of the ‘once greatest ally,’ the United Kingdom, the lack of preparedness is shocking.
Today, reports arise that under PM Keir ‘Not-a-Churchill’ Starmer, Britainonly has enough drones for one week of warwith Russia.

“The military’s stockpile of drones is so low that it would vanish within days of war breaking out with Moscow.
Defense chiefs fear that Vladimir Putin could be ready to invade Europe by the end of the decade if a peace deal is struck with Ukraine.”
It’s difficult to overstate just how central drones have become to modern warfare, but the UK army currently has only 6,000 drones in its arsenal, a mere fraction of what would be needed to resist an invasion.
“Currently, Ukraine is using an estimated 9,000 drones a day as it battles to keep Putin’s troops at bay. Kyiv also claims it destroys about 30,000 Russian drones a month.
