Military Matters: Episode 6

Brian Gerrish and Charles Malet discuss the reluctance of young men and women to 'fight for their country' and examine reasons for why this might be.

They also analyse the extraordinary relationship between the British Government and the state of Israel and how that relationship affects the UK Armed Forces involved in current global conflicts.

Also discussed is the pressure on special forces soldiers and veterans in light of the arrest of Australian soldier Ben Roberts-Smith for war crimes.

The processes to procure munitions off the open market, and how these have changed the nature of corporate control over the battle space, is also part of this wide-ranging discussion.
