As conflict intensifies and allies ramp up their deployments, they warn Britain's armed forces face growing questions over funding, readiness and whether the UK still has the credible deterrent needed in a more dangerous world.The programme also tackles a major political row over proposals to offer migrants up to £40,000 to leave the UK and return to their home countries.
