When the Conservatives cut the defence budget, that third category was the one that took a major hit. Perhaps that's a pause, a moment to pause for reflection and ask ourselves, is this really the time to cut the defence budget? He said it was rather a reduction in the pace at which we have been increasing the defence budget.
