The sums being invested in the drive to war are grotesque. There’s a difference between making sure the UK is properly defended and the £150 billion+ a year the UK is moving to commit to spending on weapons of mass destruction with little enlargement of the actual armed forces. The drumbeat of war causes only hysteria and it’s very hard to discern the difference between fact and fiction.
