At Spek Savers, if we said you can choose a free lens option with a pair of glasses from

our £69 range or above, how would that sound?

Well, like this, very focus to help you see near and for reactions which darken in sunlight.

Oh nice, thin and light lenses, or ultra clear, super clean.

We don't have a sound for that, let's just say they help your glasses stay cleaner for

longer.

So you're better off with Spek Savers, offers can't be combined terms conditions apply,

ask in store for details.

It's January 2018 and the head of the British Army at the time is giving a speech.

I think it is the rising threat from states that is of most immediate concern.

The rules based international architecture that has assured our stability and prosperity

since 1945 is, I suggest, threatened.

Unusually, General Sir Nick Carter dedicates nearly the whole speech to one country.

Russia, the most complex and capable security challenge we have faced since the Cold War.

Russia, I think, could initiate hostilities sooner than we expect, thermobaric warheads.

It will start with something we don't expect.

We should not take what we've seen so far as a template for the future.

Did the military see this coming?

I believe our ability to preempt or respond to these threats will be eroded if we don't

match up to them now.

They represent a clear and present danger.

They are now on Europe's doorstep.
