Financial Times reports Chancellor John Healey will use his October budget to pause the pledge to raise defence spending to 3% of GDP by 2030 and defer difficult funding decisions for the armed forces. Healey had argued 3% by 2030 as a milestone toward NATO's 3.5% target by 2035; that aim is now uncertain. The budget will prioritise closing an almost £5bn defence equipment funding gap left by former prime minister Starmer, government sources said. Institute for Fiscal Studies researcher Bee Boileau estimates lifting to 3% by 2030 would require roughly an extra £10bn a year at current prices; reaching 3.5% would need about £25bn. Under current plans UK defence spending is projected at 2.7% of GDP by 2030.
