Two top UK defense officials resign over military spending in fresh blow to Keir Starmer

London —

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer suffered a fresh blow on Thursday after Secretary of Defense John Healey resigned over a budget dispute, saying the government is not willing to give the British Armed Forces the “resources they need.”

Soon after, Minister of State for the Armed Forces Al Carns also announced his resignation in a letter posted to X, saying that the government is “failing” to give the armed forces what they need to do the job and the “loyalty to stand by them when it’s done.”

For those scoring at home, the entire Royal Navy, now, is significantly smaller than the force sent to the Falklands in 82.
