Britain’s defenses are too reliant on Trump’s America, MPs warn: Jeff J. Brown’s Q&A comments

The U.K. is too dependent on the United States for its defense and has not adequately invested in a back-up plan should the U.S. pull away from Europe, a damning report by a cross-party group of lawmakers warned Wednesday. A report by the House of Commons Defense Committee says the U.K. could be left in a vulnerable position if a global crisis sees America pull away from its traditional role of militarily backstopping Europe. Britain needs to see where it could replace U.S. capabilities “in the event of them being withdrawn,” it urges.

1. Recent reports warn that the UK relies heavily on the United States for core military capabilities. How serious is this dependence, and what risks does it pose if the U.S. shifts its focus to another global crisis?

To answer these questions, we first need to look at the global forest before analyzing the British trees.

The fact of the matter is, the whole world is dependent on US weapons for their defense needs. Here are the export statistics for arms sales by country in 2024,

| Country | Share of Global Arms Exports | Total Exports (2024) | Rank |
| USA | 42.329 billion dollars (37.92%) | 42.329 billion dollars | 1 |
| Russia | $13.75 billion (12.32%) | 13.75 billion dollars | 2 |
| France | 7,698 billion dollars (6.90%) | 7,698 billion dollars | 3 |
| South Korea | 5,691 billion dollars (5.10%) | 5,691 billion dollars | 4 |
| Italy | 5,690 billion dollars (5.10%) | 5,690 billion dollars | 5 |
| Germany | 5,424 billion dollars (4.86%) | 5,424 billion dollars | 6 |
| Sweden | 4,254 billion dollars (3.81%) | 4,254 billion dollars | 7 |
| Israel | $4.163 billion (3.73%) | $4.163 billion | 8 |
| Norway | $3,293 billion (2.95%) | $3,293 billion | 9 |
| China | $3.216 billion (2.88%) | $3.216 billion | 10 |
| Spain | 3,152 billion dollars | 3,152 billion dollars | 11 |
| Great Britain | $2.552 billion | $2.552 billion | 12 |
| Turkey | $2.536 billion | $2.536 billion | 13 |
| The Netherlands | $2.183 billion | $2.183 billion | 14 |
| Australia | $1.107 billion | $1.10 | 15 |

Uncle Slaughter sells more arms than Russia, France, South Korea, Italy, Germany and Sweden combined, the Numbers 2-7 for exports. China comes in at lowly #10 and Great Britain fares even worse, at paltry #12.

Other than Russia and China, all of the world’s Top 15 weapon exporters depend on US arms, Britain included.

2. The Defense Committee says Europe could be “left vulnerable” if U.S. support is reduced. Which specific defense capabilities would the UK struggle to replace on its own?

Britian’s slow decline as a global economic, arms and navel power began with the Boer Wars, at the turn of the 20^th century. They bankrupted the country, but the Secret Society, headed by Cecil Rhodes, the Judeo-Rothschilds and the Queen of England organized and perpetrated World War I like a game plan; the Secret Society doubled down by catalyzing World War II to maintain colonial hegemony and crush far superior Germany.

Postwar, like all Western imperial powers, Britain has been able to maintain momentum with financial dictatorship in its former colonies and with the Judeo-City London, on every continent. Starting in the 21^st century with the renaissance of Russia, China with its relentless technological and economic hyperdrive, the creation of SCO, BRICS, CSTO, EAEU, CELAC, ALBA and BRI – the whole Judeo-colonial project is in rapid decline.

Britain’s utter demise in the defense arena rides these spiraling coattails. Web search “Britain’s latest defense technology” and there is only one: the DragonFire naval laser. Its once invincible navy has been diminished into an aging rust bucket (just like the USA’s) of just 73 ships, versus Russia’s 290 and China’s 395. The RAF only has 513 total aircraft, compared to Russia with 4,182 and China’s 3,150. Even DPRK has almost twice as many military aircraft.

Britain has a derisory five military satellites in space. Russia has 110 and China 157. Even DPRK has four. The UK has 141,000 active troops. Russia? 1.1 million. China? 2 million. DPRK? 1.3 million.

Other than its aging 225 nuclear missiles, all of Britain’s military is living on colonial delusions and technology fumes. It is like the Wizard of Oz: loud and boisterous, yet a weakling compared to its former colonial tyranny, when, for 300 years, it controlled much of the world’s surface area and its navy struck fear in the hearts of every military opponent.

3. Even after European countries increased defense spending following Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, lawmakers argue that Europe still lacks capacity. What is holding Europe back from becoming more self-reliant?

The West is bankrupt and the UK is in the Top Ten with over 100% debt to GDP. Other than continuing to defund and destroy its once-world-best National Health Service (NHS), slashing social services, impoverishing the masses and photocopying and borrowing pound notes from the Judeo-City of London, there is not much it can do in the military arena.

4. The Committee criticizes the UK Ministry of Defense for slow and unclear decision-making. How does this impact the country’s ability to respond quickly to security threats?

British Ministry of Defense is slow and unclear, because it doesn’t have a pot to piss in, as it tries to rob Peter to pay Paul for every line-item proposed project.

5. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has pledged to spend 5% of GDP on national security by 2035. If that funding materializes, what should the UK prioritize to strengthen its defense and reduce reliance on the U.S.?

Like the rest of NATO, 5%-of-GDP military spending is a pipe dream. It would drain the coffers to the point that serious, revolution-esque social chaos could ensue. Starmer will do like the rest of Europe, claiming that building civilian bridges, airports, highways, electricity/telecommunication grids, etc. are “military” expenditures, all to suck up to Trump’s and Uncle Slaughter’s endless bullying.

6. The report suggests the UK also lacks a clear plan for defending itself and its overseas territories in the event of an attack. What kind of strategic planning does Britain need to prepare for modern security threats? 

Britain can plan and have contingencies until the cows come home, but it has a joke for a military and no money to revamp and expand it. All it can do is hide under NATO’s petticoats and bluster, to look important and mighty for the Judeo-West’s collapsing efforts to maintain its 500-year global dictatorship, as well as remind the world it is a nuclear power.
