Labour — Liverpool Garston

Speaking in the House of Commons on 25 June 2025

Debate

Nuclear-certified Aircraft Procurement

Contribution

It is not such a step. We are joining the NATO nuclear mission. We have just published a strategic defence review that sets out that our defence posture is “NATO first”. We are trying to support our allies in NATO in deterring any threat that might come from possible adversaries; that is what this is about. It is not a stepping stone to anything else.
