In last week’s poll we asked if spending on defence should take priority over expenditure on industry and science with the results showing respondents in a hawkish mood.
A total of 53% thought that spending of defence should be prioritised, but opinion was divided on whether such spending would make us safer (30%) in the face of current threats (23%).
A further 16% took the view that spending that bolsters economic growth – such as in science and education – should take priority over defence; and 14% agreed that spending to underpin infrastructure should prevail.
That leaves the remaining 17%, who didn’t agree with any of the suggestions we provided.
