‘Defence is a mess - and it seems we have clowns at the helm,’ slams Nana Akua

How can you not know that? What are you doing all day, John?

After the news that a Russian shadow fleet is in the English Channel, he warned the Russian leader: “We see you. We see your activity over our cables and our pipelines.

“And you should know that any attempt to damage them will not be tolerated and will have serious consequences.”

Oh, I bet Vladimir Putin was really scared when he heard that.

I'm pretty sure he has a better idea of how many ships we have. More than you, John, anyway.

Vladimir Putin has been casing the joint for a while. He knows what's going on in our Channel more than our own defence sector.

And get this, apparently the Russian crew of the Shadow fleet would be eligible to claim asylum here in the UK if they so chose. What a joke.

Don't get me started on HMS Dragon.

Then there's the Chagos, a strategically important military base that we own.

Although Sir Keir Starmer and Co are doing their very best to dispatch it at an eye-watering expense to British taxpayers.

The Prime Minister has claimed that the average cost of the deal was £100million per year, with a net overall cost of £ 3.4billion over 99 years.

He said this was the same or slightly less than the running cost of an aircraft carrier minus the aircraft.

Although it wasn't £3.4billion, was it? It was more like I think it misplaced the dot for like £34billion.

And Donald Trump, in fact, most of the people of this country have no idea why Sir Keir Starmer would impose such a nonsensical and unnecessary self-inflicted wound on this country.

The US leader said: “I think they should keep it. I don't know why they're doing it there. They need money.”

We need the Americans for our security. Yet Keir Starmer has gone out of his way to create a rift.

It's got so bad that the Ukrainian President Zelensky is now suggesting that if the US pull out of Nato, the UK should rejoin the EU, which is what Sir Keir Starmer wanted in the first place.

And the way our armed forces treated the brave men and women who are willing to lay down their lives to keep us all safe.

We have a Government led by a human rights lawyer prepared to bow down to international courts, a Government who do not appear to have a patriotic bone in its body, even willing to hound down patriots whilst terrorists are freed.

Prosecutions of veterans continue, not just in Northern Ireland. Now they're going for the SAS. The recruitment results are literally catastrophic.

Take Dennis Hutchins, who was hounded through the courts and arrested at the early hours of 5am for carrying out his duty.

Hounded until the day he died, whilst IRA terrorists faced no prospect of prosecution.

If we're going to absolve those who were potentially terrorists. The very least we can do is absolve our armed forces.

And now we have potential people who help the Royal Navy looking to go on strike.

The Tories were just as bad. They refused to stand up for the veterans, which meant that Johnny Mercer, the veterans minister, resigned by the end of the Tories' 14 years.

Well, there was less spending on defence than the previous Government. We seriously need to get our house in order.

Our Government has shown the rest of the world what a weak position we are in.

Why can't we create a proper defence industry right here in the UK?

It's not as if we haven't done it before, creating jobs and a strong manufacturing base, which would provide jobs and revenue instead of pouring money into welfare and illegal migration.

We need to industrialize, make more of our own weapons, our own weapons, create a protective dome over our country like Israel, and get with the program because currently we are a sitting duck.
