Key word - "spent".

The Falklands conflict was almost half a century ago. It is doubtful that the UK could respond today like they did in 1982.

The video "The Navy With More Admirals Than Warships"[1] addresses that exact scenario, and talks about the current woeful state of the British Navy today.

You are right to question who your allies are.
