Wendy Morton

Conservative — Aldridge-Brownhills

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 October 2025

Debate

Diego Garcia Military Base and British Indian Ocean Territory Bill

Contribution

I will make a little more progress. What happens if the base is not secured? Will it need to be decommissioned? How could we prevent an adversary inheriting our fixed assets? What is the role of the United States in all this? These are serious matters, and the House needs serious answers. The purpose of the amendment is to secure those answers.
