Closed petition Increase Defence spending to 3%

Closed on 15 January 2021

I want the government and Parliament to set out steps to increase defence spending to 3% and boost our navy

As a British citizen I no longer feel safe in our country seeing our country depart from the EU and seeing American dominance being tested and in decline with rising powers like China and Russia. I feel there is an urgent need to increase our defence spending to 3 percent. We are seeing more Russian Cold War style operations like bombers and ships near British territory. We see democracy being tested of the likes of Hong Kong. I fear nuclear weapons from countries like Iran and north Korean
