On 24 January, the head of the British army, General Sir Patrick Sanders stated that the country should train a "citizen army" ready to fight a land war in the future. Prompted by the threat from Russia and similar steps being taken by other European nations, he warned that an increase in reserves forces alone would "not be enough", and a future conflict would have to be a "whole-of-nation-undertaking".

Why supporting the Climate and Nature Bill matters
For the past few months, the Quaker Support for Climate Action group has joined the Zero Hour campaign encouraging support for the Climate and Nature Bill (formerly the Climate Ecology and Climate and Ecological Emergency Bill). The leading to take this action comes from a deep and urgent sense that, if we don't take action now, it will be too late.
