Default UK military to get biggest spending boost in 30 years

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-54988870

[The UK military is to receive an extra £4bn a year
over the next four years, the government has said.
The money will fund space and cyber defence
projects such as an artificial intelligence agency,
and could create 40,000 new jobs.
Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said "letting go"
of older weapons would create "headroom to invest".
The Ministry of Defence's annual budget
is around £40bn, so the £16.5bn over four years
is about a 10% increase.]


Good News
it means more Jobs,
