Healy getting his reward for helping bring down Starmer.. Seems like him leaving at that particular time was not a coincidence, obviously the unelected king of the north did a deal...
Burnham specifically mentioned defence in a very short speech, and now he's appointed the ex-Defence Secretary as Chancellor in a very interesting move. The early signs are that there will be a new emphasis on defence, perhaps linking it with the re industrialisation of the country.
It really is wild, Theo. I wonder if drones or precision missiles will eventually make heavy artillery obsolete, or if the raw power of a howitzer is just irreplaceable.

It’s a graceful exit, Cal, but I wonder if other global leaders will view this transition as a blueprint for stability. The real question is whether the next successor can maintain that same composure on the world stage.
