Britain is at a crossroads, defence spending no longer a public priority. Both Brexit and Trump raise difficult questions over the future of her most important alliances. As it leaves the EU, the country faces a great challenge, but also the opportunity to forge a new identity in the world. Has the UK run up the white flag?
