Rejected petition Reform the British Empire! Increase military spending! God save the queen!

I want the government to democratically begin reforming the British empire as well as increase military spending and recruiting to aid in the potential future conflicts…

More details

The British army is small in comparison to our allies with only around 80,000 regular soldiers and provisions for 4 months of sustained attrition! The nation is on the brink of war and we are unprepared, our allies have superior armour, troop and aircraft numbers as well as a larger navy! As well as this Britain has gone from being a great Empire to a nation with a gaggle of overseas territories without enough soldiers to effectively defend its waters! Something needs to be done!
