Wes Streeting warns Britain has 1,000 days to get ready for war before its adversaries could attack in 2030

Labour has still not set out how it will hit John Healey's target of spending three per cent of GDP on defence by 2030. Yet Defence Secretary Wes Streeting says he is '100 per cent' confident of meeting Nato's spending goal. He called readiness to 'fight and win a war' his 'defining priority'. Households are already being told to stockpile nine litres of water and three days of food.

Streeting blamed the Tories for leaving 'the smallest army since the Napoleonic Wars'.

Prime Minister Andy Burnham insisted stocking up at home is 'not about panicking'.

Russia has reportedly deployed fishing trawlers to spy on Britain's undersea cables.
