    or....we could just build on one of the finest infantry brigades in the British Army (and that means the world) and recruit more Ghurkas, raising a couple of extra Battalions. We would have no shortage of volunteers.

    The real problem is not where to find troops, there are plenty of suggestions, indeed improve pay and conditions and we could improve home grown recruiting as well.

    The problem is the Defence budget. It is far too low to meet its commitments and to maintain balanced forces. There is a £1bn blackhole in the equipment budget alone.

    We need to make a significant increase in our Defence budget.
