Conflict in the Middle East has once again shown that clean power is essential for energy security.
That’s why we’re speeding up action, with solar panels to be fitted as standard on new homes and plug-in solar to be made available in shops within months.

Yes.
I estimate that the following air defence systems are needed to protect the joint force effectively:
1. ROYAL NAVY
- Destroyers to have 48 x Sylver A50 vertical launch tubes with Aster 15 and Aster 30 = 12 x Destroyers (only 6 at present)
- Frigates to have 36 x Mk 41 VLS with Sea Ceptor / CAMM ER = 12 x Frigates (only 8 planned)
- Light Frigates/ Corvettes / OPVs to have 57 mm gun = 24 vessels (only 5x Type 31 planned)
- All surface combatants to have combined 35 mm cannon + HVM / LMM launchers for C-UAS = 96 systems (needed to replace 20 mm Phalanx, but not planned at the moment)
- Frigates to have Dragon Fire 50 kW High Energy Laser for C-UAS (Only one in service)
2. ROYAL AIR FORCE
- 30 x active RAF air bases to have medium-range air defence system with Land Ceptor / CAMM ER mobile launchers = 96 vehicle launcher sets (none planned at the moment)
- 30 x active RAF bases to have mobile short-range air defence system with 35 mm C-UAS cannon = 96 vehicles (none planned at the moment)
3. BRITISH ARMY
- 2 x deployable divisions to have one medium-range air defence regiment with Land Ceptor / CAMM ER mobile launchers = 48 launch sets (only 12 launch sets acquired to date)
- 2 x deployable divisions to have one short-range air defence regiment with 96 x Starstreak HVM / LMM mobile launchers = 96 vehicle launchers (Stormer is obsolete but HVM will be retained on a new platform)
- 2 x deployable divisions to have one short-range air defence regiment with 96 x 35x228 mm air defence cannons = 96 cannon-equipped vehicles (not planned)
- 4 x cavalry regiments plus 4 x infantry battalions to have dual-role 30x173 mm cannons for C-UAS = 352 cannon-equipped vehicles (not planned)
- 4 x tank regiments plus 4 x infantry battalions to have remote weapon station with 30x113 mm cannons + LMM for C-UAS = 352 cannon-equipped vehicle (not planned)
4. Ballistic missile defence options (not yet planned):
- THAAD
- Patriot
- Aegis

on the red topped post that marks the end of the sewer outfall, someone has swum out to attach a Union Flag at half mast, a symbol of mourning. Uh! Over a shit outflow. A product we get far too much of from Parliamentarians. Symbolism writ large. patrickgoff.com/art-2/an-artis…

Keir Starmer accepts the UK is not on a war footing at the moment JENKIN: Why is (the UK) not on a war footing now? STARMER: Because the strategic review commits us to a war footing, and we now need to put the funding in place in order to get there.

@WorkElizab No paint! The patrina cries out for a clean and some elbow grease. A good polish with beeswax will bring out the richness and colour of the timber, which looks dry and neglected but still has its beauty
