Ukraine’s strategy is to expel the invader and ask for any and all assistance in the defense of their country from Russia’s war of conquest.

Ukraine is not a sovereign country. Its affairs are dictated by the Western countries that pushed Euromaidan, selected its subsequent president, ensured the failure of Minsk II, and now support endless war to the last Ukrainian. So far as I can tell, there is not much strategy to Ukraine outside of "keep fighting", and their overall strategy has been absolutely desolating for the population, throwing people into meat grinder after meat grinder, which Russia finds an acceptable status quo.

All of the help from Poland, the UK, the US, Baltics, Germany, and other European countries is massively appreciated.

Is it appreciated by those being forcefully conscripted? What about the majorities who want a negotiated peace? Perhaps they do, but don't let this get in the way of understanding that endless escalation and war is not popular, and this is nevertheless what is happening.

More is requested and it’s good to see the UK is stepping up in a much bigger way to assist in their defense.

If you had read the article, you would know that it's about (1) austerity cuts justified by (2) general fund increased "defense" spending, not specifically for Ukraine-based arms. The only mention of Ukraine is Starmer's unhinged comments about potentially sending troops to Ukraine, i.e. NATO member troops to Ukraine, which is, again, only an escalation.

As I already mentioned, the goal of endless arms to Ukraine is one of escalation and using Ukrainians as fodder against Russia, not actually helping the country. The country is already ruined, it has been sold off to these OECD countries for a song (or for "defense", as the propaganda term would put it). Some "aid", getting UA's land and industries in return! Some "aid", i.e. loans with interest!
