Between War and Peace: Future Challenges in UK Defence
Britain faces a new reality, where it is neither at war nor at peace, and must adapt its strategy, procurement, and investment in personnel to meet evolving threats.
At a Labour Party Conference event, Defence Minister Luke Pollard stated that Britain's security posture must adapt to an unfamiliar landscape, saying
"We aren’t at war, but we aren’t at peace", highlighting a fundamental challenge for the Ministry of Defence (MoD).
The MoD recorded 80,000 attacks from state actors over the past two years, making the current reality starkly different from traditional peacetime operations.
