Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 June 2025

Debate

G7 and NATO Summits

Contribution

Friend is right about the dividend that has been enjoyed, but we must now make sure that there is a defence dividend—that higher spending in that area is reflected in good, well-paid jobs in the United Kingdom that boost our economy across all parts of our communities.
