quote

... the new head of the army will strike a similarly defiant tone in his first speech today. Declaring 2022 to be Britain’s “1937 moment”, Sir Patrick Sanders will tell the Royal United Services Institute that British troops must be ready to “fight and win” on the streets and in the cities of Europe. Ben Wallace, the defence secretary, will tell the same event that the time has come for a 20 per cent increase in defence spending.
