Government confirms Jarvisâs move from role as security minister to replace John Healey Dan Jarvis has been named as the new defence secretary, replacing John Healey. Dan Jarvis has been named as the new defence secretary, replacing John Healey following his shock resignation this afternoon. Healey said the spending increase in defence investment plan âfalls well shortâ of what is requiredâ. He also criticised the chancellor Reeves for being unwilling to fund defence by enough, and the prime minister for being too weak to over-rule her. Healey added he was resigning because he did not think defence was getting enough and under these plans, he would have to take decisions that could make Britain âless safeâ. The armed forces minister, Al Carns, also quit over the governmentâs defence spending plans. He wrote on X: âWe owe those who serve the UK the kit to do the job and the loyalty to stand by them when itâs done. We are failing on both.â Keir Starmer has insisted a key defence funding plan âwill provide the resources our military needs to keep us safeâ in a letter to John Healey, who the prime minister said he was sorry to see resign as defence secretary.
