Lastly, looking back over 40 years, I am more convinced than ever the Armed Forces offers an amazing career.
To those still serving or about to join... be bold, be ambitious, be demanding of yourselves and of your leadership. And always keep pushing to go further and faster. ht

The Prime Minister’s decision to increase defence spending by over 50% is profound. The 2020s will be tough, but the 2030s will see growth & acceleration, with a renewed Deterrent, recapitalised Army, the RAF joining NATO's nuclear sharing mission & an expanded submarine force. h

Contrary to Whitehall orthodoxy, the MOD is not the ‘department of waste’. We deliver a phenomenal return: civil resilience, social mobility, exports, jobs & investment. We can always be more efficient. But financial pressure usually arises from mismatched resources & ambition. h

Even in a contested age, we have a responsibility to maintain military dialogue. That is why I visited Moscow in 2022 and Beijing in 2025. It is about minimising miscalculations, managing escalation, cooperating where required and speaking plainly where we disagree. https://t.co/

Our military presence beyond Europe is modest, but disproportionately beneficial. It reflects our responsibilities as UN Security Council member, our interests as a G7 economy and provides a basis for partnerships like AUKUS & GCAP that add to our security & prosperity. https://t

Ukraine continues to confound the world with its resilience, ingenuity and sheer courage. Their sense of nationhood has never been stronger, and her people will never return to Moscow’s orbit. Putin will continue to lose. And Ukraine will prevail. https://t.co/b5ONUgMLIo

Europe and America wield an enormous military, economic, demographic & technological lead over Russia. The most important tools in our arsenal are confidence & resolve. NATO must face down those who threaten us by defending forward and by demonstrating that we are stronger. https

Britain remains fundamentally safe. We benefit from a remarkable defence construct based on being a nuclear power, a NATO member and close ally of America. It is a construct that should be celebrated, elevated and strengthened. https://t.co/UqYNYNjYLQ

State-on-state competition is back, global order is being eroded, and a third nuclear age has begun. This is a new era, and the implications will be with us for decades. We must ensure our response matches the challenge, and that the British state is up to the task. https://t.co/

Our people have delivered all that was asked of them. Training 60,000 Ukrainians. Evacuating from Sudan. Delivering aid to Gaza. Striking Houthi forces. Defending global shipping. Responding to strikes and civil contingencies at home. Thank you: you are magnificent. https://t.

The past four years have been extraordinary: 2 monarchs, 4 prime ministers, 3 defence secretaries, a change of government, war in Europe and conflict in the Middle East. But now my time as Chief of the Defence Staff is at an end. Here is a thread of big reflections… https://t.co/

@AdmTonyRadakin_ @ZelenskyyUa Parroting a well known nazi slogan from the Ukranian Nationalists of WW2 is not a good look for a UK "Chief of Defence Staff".

@AdmTonyRadakin_ @ZelenskyyUa A great legacy you leave behind sir: AUKUS, coordinating the digitalization of the military, introduction of the UK Aircraft Carrier, and also the excellent coordination of the war in Ukraine.
Thanks for all you do sir, BZ.

A privilege to meet President @ZelenskyyUA for the final time as Chief of the Defence Staff, alongside my successor Sir Rich Knighton.
I am proud of the consistent & forward leaning work of the British Armed Forces to support Ukraine. This will continue unabated. Slava Ukraini!

Last week I delivered my final speech as Chief of the Defence Staff.
My theme was confidence as a judgement and a choice, and how this must shape our approach to a more contested world.
