Tugendhat defends defence policies amid recruitment woes

Conservative Security Minister Tom Tugendhat defends the government's defence policies amid record-low armed services recruitment.

He highlights substantial investments in nuclear technology and advanced equipment like the DragonFire laser system.

Tugendhat also expresses the commitment to veterans and criticises Labour for lacking similar support.

He underscores the need to enhance recruitment, particularly for the Army, Air Force, and Navy, to ensure national security against threats like those from Vladimir Putin.
