In recent years, the use of military drones, also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), has become a significant tool in national defense strategies around the world. These advanced technologies allow governments to enhance their ability to monitor, respond to threats, and protect their citizens. The implementation of drones in military operations has revolutionized the way modern security challenges are managed, offering benefits in surveillance, precision strikes, and minimizing human risks. Enhanced surveillance and intelligence gathering One of the primary advantages of a military drone is their ability to conduct surveillance operations over vast areas. Drones equipped with high-definition cameras, thermal imaging, and other sensors can collect real-time data and intelligence without putting personnel at risk. This capability allows the military to monitor borders, conflict zones, and sensitive areas, preventing potential security threats such as terrorism, smuggling, or unauthorized incursions. By providing constant surveillance from a safe distance, drones offer governments the opportunity to maintain a watchful eye on regions of interest, even in remote or dangerous environments. This technology enables decision-makers to respond quickly to emerging threats, making drones invaluable for national security. Precision strikes with reduced collateral damage Another critical role that drones play in modern military operations is their use in precision strikes. Unlike traditional manned aircraft, drones can hover over a target for extended periods, providing detailed information and the ability to strike with remarkable accuracy. This reduces the risk of collateral damage, which is a significant concern in military operations near civilian populations. Drones allow governments to carry out targeted attacks on high-value targets, such as terrorist leaders or militant groups, with minimal risk to civilian life. These operations often involve missions that would be too dangerous or costly to carry out with manned aircraft, making drones a more efficient and ethical option in certain conflict scenarios. Reducing risk to military personnel One of the most notable advantages of drones is their ability to minimize the risk to human life. In traditional military operations, soldiers, pilots, and intelligence personnel are often placed in harm’s way. With drones, many dangerous tasks can be carried out remotely, reducing the number of military personnel needed in combat zones. This remote-control capability also means that governments can conduct operations in hostile or inaccessible regions without the logistical challenges of deploying human troops. By lowering the risk to military forces, drones enhance the effectiveness of operations while ensuring the safety of military personnel. Border security and counterterrorism efforts Military drones have also proven to be an essential tool in maintaining border security and combating terrorism. In countries facing challenges with illegal immigration, drug smuggling, or infiltration by terrorist groups, drones offer a reliable means of patrolling and securing national borders. Drones can cover long stretches of terrain, especially in difficult-to-reach areas, such as deserts or mountains, that might otherwise be vulnerable to unauthorized entry. In counterterrorism operations, drones can be used to track and eliminate terror networks with precise strikes. The flexibility and responsiveness of drones enable security forces to neutralize threats quickly and efficiently, contributing to global and domestic security. Ethical and legal considerations Despite their numerous advantages, the use of military drones raises several ethical and legal concerns. One of the main challenges is ensuring that drones are used in accordance with international law, particularly with regard to human rights and sovereignty. Some critics argue that drone strikes can violate the sovereignty of nations, especially when they occur without explicit consent from the host country. Additionally, there are concerns about the transparency and accountability of drone operations. The potential for mistakes, such as misidentification of targets or civilian casualties, highlights the need for strict oversight and clear rules of engagement when deploying drones. The future of military drones As technology continues to evolve, drones are likely to become an even more integral part of military strategy. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomous systems could further enhance the capabilities of drones, allowing them to make real-time decisions on the battlefield without direct human intervention. This could lead to faster and more efficient operations, though it also raises new ethical questions about the role of machines in warfare. Furthermore, with the increasing availability of drones, governments around the world are investing in counter-drone technologies to defend against potential drone-based attacks. This arms race highlights the dual-edged nature of drone technology: while they offer significant security benefits, they also present new challenges for defense.
Exciting new details have emerged for Project Edison, a high-tech data centre proposed by Elite UK REIT, which aims to transform a 39-acre site near the Department for Work and Pensions’ (DWP) Peel Park campus in Blackpool. With plans submitted to Fylde Council earlier this month, the project includes the construction of two data centre buildings and a 400-space multi-storey car park, paving the way for cutting-edge infrastructure that could redefine Blackpool’s role in the digital economy. The ambitious plans detail two 20-metre-tall data centre buildings covering a combined 157,000 square feet, which will house “multiple data halls accommodating approximately 600 racks” of server infrastructure each. These facilities will replace an existing surface-level car park at the site, creating a need for new parking solutions for DWP staff. To address this, Elite UK REIT has proposed a multi-storey car park that would support the data centre and DWP employees, though demand is expected to drop as around 1,000 DWP staff are scheduled to relocate to Blackpool’s town centre next year. Elite UK REIT selected this location for its prime connection to the North Atlantic Loop, a high-speed subsea fibre optic cable linking the USA, UK, and Ireland. This connectivity promises fast and reliable internet speeds, boosting Blackpool’s appeal to data-centre operators and tech firms. The project is expected to make a significant contribution to Silicon Sands, a 40-acre tech cluster planned within the Blackpool Airport Enterprise Zone, designed to attract data-driven industries to the Fylde Coast. According to consultancy Cassidy + Ashton, Project Edison “will position the Fylde Coast at the cutting edge of AI development, supporting the economic ambitions of the Blackpool Enterprise Zone.” To find out more, search reference number 24/0516 on Fylde Council’s planning portal. The project team includes Cassidy + Ashton, KeySource, TTSP, Murphy Geospatial, SLR, GEA, and Bowland Ecology, all working to bring this landmark development to life.

If current trends persist, Scotland is set to face a homelessness crisis of alarming proportions by 2040, according to a new report by full-service law firm Shakespeare Martineau. The study has forecasted a 90% increase in homelessness applications to more than 4,100 annually, while at least 7,000 households could be forced into temporary accommodation – an 89% surge. The City of Edinburgh is anticipated to have the largest share of households in temporary accommodation in Scotland, comprising two thirds (66%) of the total nationwide. Highland follows, accounting for 32% of all such households in the country. Grant Docherty, partner and head of Shakespeare Martineau in Scotland, said: “This is a wake-up call. We cannot allow these projections to become a reality. “Scotland abolished the Right to Buy scheme, which gave council house tenants the opportunity to buy their rented home at a discounted price, in 2016 – leading to a 4% increase in the country’s social-rented homes stock in the six years that followed. “However, despite this, these figures show that it is crucial the public sector and housing associations work together to provide stable, accessible and affordable accommodation. The government also needs to ensure support services for vulnerable groups are properly funded. “The cost of doing nothing will be catastrophic – not just for the individuals affected but for society as a whole.” Utilising the latest National Records of Scotland population projections, Shakespeare Martineau – supported by socio economic experts at Marrons – has built a national and regional picture of Scotland’s housing need in 2040. Supplementing this is government data on homelessness applications and the number of households living in temporary accommodation, as well as under-occupation statistics. By 2040, Scotland’s 16+ population is expected to grow by 4% to more than 4.7 million people. Notably, Edinburgh and Lothians emerges as the fastest-growing region – anticipating 15% growth to more than 871,000 – while Highlands and Islands will witness a 3% decline in its total population. To meet the burgeoning demand, at least 352,500 homes need to be constructed across the country by 2040. Edinburgh and Lothians leads the way in housing need, with demand for more than 111,500 homes. In contrast, South of Scotland demands the least, with a requirement of 16,830 properties. The first-time buyer demographic is anticipated to grow by 1% to more than 1.3 million, with Edinburgh and Lothian expected to experience the most positive growth at 11%. Highlands and Islands stands out with the most significant decline, projected at 7%. Nationally, the later living demographic is set to witness a 27% increase, with Edinburgh and Lothians experiencing the greatest surge (39%) and Scotland South demonstrating the slowest growth (19%). Meanwhile, the student-age demographic is set to make up 7% of the total 16+ population in Scotland’s university cities. Dan Usher, economics director at Marrons, who specialises in housing need evidence, said: “Citing pressure on homelessness services, rising property prices and high levels of temporary accommodation, the Scottish government and 12 of the country’s 32 councils have declared housing emergencies – signalling that intervention is needed. “In examining the data, it becomes evident there is a pressing need for strategic collaboration between the public and private sectors to address the growing demand for affordable housing, as well as a real opportunity for purpose-built homes tailored for last-time buyers. By capitalising on this, we not only cater to the specific needs of this demographic but also unlock the potential to release much-needed family homes back into the market. “Building a range of homes to suit many different needs is not only a priority but a necessity. It creates more choice, aids first-time buyers onto the property ladder, gives expanding families additional space; helps the ageing population downsize and live in homes more suitable for their needs, and adds to the supply of affordable housing.” To read the full report, please visit https://tinyurl.com/ScotlandHousing2040.

A new report by the National Audit Office (NAO), ‘Lessons learned: a planning and spending framework that enables long-term value for money’ has called for a cultural shift in the way government sets out its public spending plans to ensure long-term value for money. In response to the report, Andrew Baldwin, Head of Policy and Public Affairs at the Association for Project Management (APM), said: “With increasing scrutiny on value for money and environmental impact, it is more important than ever that all projects, especially those funded by the taxpayer, show how they will deliver tangible, measurable impacts in the longer term. “Public spend is often justified by the benefits that a particular government project will accrue over several years. Too often these benefits are not adequately captured and there is often a significant time lag before they are fully realised. “A benefits-led project approach will ensure the impacts of a project on society are more accurately reviewed and delivered. Only this way can we make public money work harder in the long-term. “APM believes the National Infrastructure and Service Transformation Authority (NISTA), when established, can play a key role here. For this to happen, NISTA must be given the resources to further professionalise project management in government and the mandate to ensure project benefits and value for money are given the long-term focus they need.” Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals

October marks breast cancer awareness month, a global event that receives a flurry of support from businesses and industries of all kinds. It’s not just from companies with a strong female workforce, either. Organisations with a traditionally male-predominant workforce are also showing their support, not only raising breast cancer awareness by encouraging men to get themselves checked but also sparking vital conversations about other conditions that affect them as well. One such example is the National Federation of Demolition Contractors (NFDC), which has taken the opportunity to encourage men to get themselves checked for prostate cancer, with 1 in 8 men being diagnosed with the disease in their lifetime. Such encouragement is vital in male-heavy industries, where health issues often fall under the radar despite the impact they could have on staff. With so many safety measures adopted in demolition and construction, it makes little sense for people to skip on precautions when it comes to their own personal health. Prostate Cancer: Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men, with roughly 52,000 men diagnosed every year in the UK alone. In male predominant industries, such as the construction and demolition industries, organisations NFDC are inspiring members through online and social media campaigns, encouraging workers to get cancer screenings to ensure early detection. For men over the age of 50, regular prostate exams are recommended every two to three years. Just like identifying hazards on-site, workers can spot potential health risks by understanding the factors that influence prostate cancer, including age, race and family history. Some symptoms of prostate cancer include, needing to urinate more frequently, feeling as if your bladder hasn’t emptied and finding blood in semen. Health and safety are a big concern within the demolition industry, but health issues such as cancer are not talked about enough. It is imperative for workers to be proactive and not wait for symptoms to catch up with them. Duncan Rudall, CEO of the NFDC, outlined how working in the demolition industry is extremely physically demanding and that frequent health checks are essential. “Frequent health screenings ensure workers are physically capable of doing their jobs,” he said. “If a medical issue is caught early, there is a higher likelihood of receiving beneficial treatment.” Suffering from physical health issues such as prostate cancer can lead to other issues, including considerably affecting workers’ mental health. Cancer Research UK says that when caught early, 8 in 10 men survive prostate cancer for ten years or more, highlighting the importance of regular screening, particularly for men over 50 working in demanding industries. Owing to the stigma surrounding men’s physical and mental health, organisations working in a predominantly ‘male’ gendered space have made it a priority to educate workers with simple messaging throughout social media platform LinkedIn to keep reminders front of mind. Breast Cancer: Prostate cancer is not the only health issue demolition and construction workers should be concerned about. Breast cancer can also occur in men and is something that can often be forgotten or disregarded as a predominantly female condition. In reality, according to Cancer Research UK, around 370 men in the UK are diagnosed with the disease annually. October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the demolition and construction industries have been instrumental within the trade by ‘wearing it pink’ PPE gear on-site, as well as using pink equipment to raise awareness and funds for the cause. “The demolition and construction industries being involved in ‘wearing it pink day’ every year has helped challenge stereotypes and ensure male workers are vigilant about their health, particularly with a condition they may have previously believed to be considered ‘female only.’” Mr Rudall added. People who have one or more first-degree relatives with prostate cancer may also have an increased risk of breast cancer and should get checked and seek medical advice if they are experiencing any symptoms, including swelling, lumps or ulcers on their chest or armpits. Organisations that are part of male-predominant industries, like the NFDC, are promoting health and safety regulations, including regular health screenings for the detection of cancers alongside other regular health checks. Early detection through regular health checks is key in the fight against breast and prostate cancer,” Mr Rudall said. “In both cases, awareness can be the difference between life and loss. Demolition contractors are vigilant on-site when it comes to health and safety, and it is just as important to prioritise healthcare first off-site, too.” Both prostate and breast cancer pose significant health risks – and early detection can lead to better outcomes, early treatment and better recovery. It’s essential staff stay safe on site and off, so don’t wait for symptoms to appear. No one should feel embarrassed to seek medical help.
