HARDtalk - General Sir Mike Jackson

Logo for HARDtalk - General Sir Mike Jackson

Some of the biggest guns in the British military establishment have come out of retirement to complain that the armed forces are overstretched, under resourced and close to breaking point. General Sir Mike Jackson was the head of the army when Britain invaded Iraq. Stephen Sackur asks General Jackson if the army is suffering from Iraq fatigue, and if the government is failing the armed forces.
