As we face up to the likelihood of civil war and an enemy from within rather than outside our borders, we will need our army to assist police and security services to patrol our streets to keep us safe. We’re going to need our most loyal fighting men who put Great Britain before Allah and praying instead of patrolling for the task of keeping us safe. Never mind the Russians. We face a more dangerous enemy in our midst.

I live in a predominantly military part of Wiltshire and before that I lived in two areas of the country where the Royal Navy was dominant. I love them all. I and my husband turn out for all military days where the public is involved and I feel immense pride and warmth to those (including those of colour) who are prepared to sacrifice their lives to protect me and my family. It breaks my heart to see how the Armed Forces have been run down and (as an ex-naval wife) the reasons are many and well-known. If our island nation hopes to succeed in being one with anything to offer, we must nurture and recreate what we once esteemed.
