First priority IMHO is stop throwing our troops all over the place as world police and get a sensible foreign policy. Bring our troops home from places where they shouldn't be fighting in the first place and then have a look at what we can do to help the rest of the world.
Our armed forces are already stretched to breaking point, lacking basic equipment that is required in a theatre or war and desperatly in need of some morale boosting. Signing up to send them to yet more places to get shot and killed for reasons that are nothing to do with this country and not what they signed up for is just going to make matters worse.
If this carries on nobody will join the armed forces and then we will be fecked if something kicks off.....
