UK Defence Spending Row: Healey Resigns Over Funding Shortfall
John Healey resigned as UK Defence Secretary after being offered a £13.5bn increase in defence spending over four years, which he deemed insufficient. Chancellor Rachel Reeves resorted to budget cuts and departmental reserves to fund the MoD's demand for £18.5bn. The situation highlights the challenge of funding Labour's defence spending pledges, with options of spending cuts, tax rises, or borrowing all facing political hurdles.
