    Irish Defence Triple Lock. Reform, not abolition
    2026/06/21

    With the government planning abolition, Derek answers 7 critical questions:

    • Why it's not sovereignty loss,
    • Why reform, not abolition is sensible
    • How the Fianna Fáil leader shifted from 2020's "fully maintain" pledge to backing abolition
    • What public support means,
    • Why defence mustn't be politicised
    • Value of military neutrality, and
    • Brutal reality that the Defence Forces is at less than 70% of its 11,500 target strength.
