About the book

FOREWORD BY GENERAL SIR MIKE JACKSONAfter the pain of Iraq and Afghanistan, it is hard to imagine the UK being drawn into another war. Defence chiefs warn that there is a real prospect of future conflict, but they have struggled to persuade most politicians to take them seriously. Our leaders have concluded there are no votes in defence, and have progressively run down the armed forces. Today, the army is at its smallest since the Napoleonic Wars; the RAF is less than half its size twenty five years ago, and the Royal Navy will struggle to muster the ships and weapons required to protect our new aircraft carriers.Is there really a risk of war? Is our military less capable and, if so, what could that mean for our future?

White Flag? explains what has happened to our armed forces in recent years and asks whether their decline endangers our safety and prosperity.
