# British Defence Secretary John Healey has resigned, accusing prime minister Keir Starmer of failing to properly fund the defence investment plan. He is the sixth minister to resign from Starmer’s government in the past month. In his resignation letter, Healey stated that the country’s defence investment plan falls well short of what is required for defence and Britain at this dangerous time. He added that Starmer and the Treasury have been unwilling to commit the resources that the country needs to defend itself at this time of rising threats.
