Sky News - Live Blog: Reports the following in its 2.22pm post, " 'Inconceivable' UK would not support Finland or Sweden if they were attacked....In a joint news conference with his Finnish counterpart, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace has said the UK would come to Finland's aid in the event of an attack...."It's inconceivable that Britain would not come to the support of Finland or Sweden if it was ever attacked," Mr Wallace said. "
Lets Get Real:
One can see why there is TALK of the Defence Secretary being a future leadership candidate when PM Johnson is forced out because of Partygate, as Pre Wars go the Defence Secretary has said the right thing and he never attended Party in the LAST TWO YEARS. The reason that the Conservative backbenchers have not moved to remove the PM is that there is no natural successor, the Chancellor got caught up in the party gates mess and was fined, and the tax status of his wife did not help. Thus it look like it is down to the Defence Secretary or Foreign Secretary, if you have others running it will make the process last longer, this is a time of Crisis, and there is no Churchills or Thatcher's on the backbenches, it is not the time for on the job training.
