Rear Admiral Chris Parry joins Steven Edginton for a stark assessment of Britain’s military strength. From the shocking claim that the UK could not retake the Falklands today to the hollowing out of the Royal Navy, Parry explains how decades of poor planning, underinvestment, and shifting priorities have left Britain vulnerable.
The discussion explores modern naval warfare, including drones, hypersonic missiles, and directed energy weapons, alongside geopolitical tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. Parry also reflects on morale in the 1980s versus today, defence spending, and whether Britain has forgotten its maritime heritage.
This is a sobering look at the state of British defence — and what must change.
