The UK Defence Secretary has called for a 'proper shake-up' of the military to refocus on its primary mission of being a lethal fighting force. This statement comes amidst criticism over the Royal Navy's £3Bn aircraft carrier, HMS Prince of Wales, being unable to deploy to the Middle East due to 'faulty' shaft couplings and propellers. Security Minister Tom Tugendhat expressed that it is 'not acceptable' for the HMS Prince of Wales to remain docked instead of defending interests abroad, emphasizing the need for stringent security measures and rejecting any easing of security for ideological reasons.
