Labour (Co-op) — Plymouth Sutton and Devonport

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 June 2025

Debate

UK Nuclear Deterrent

Contribution

The increase in defence spending that we have secured, which the Prime Minister announced in February, provides us with the opportunity not to just renew our conventional capabilities, but look at how we can further support our nuclear deterrent and build our cyber-capabilities. Taken together, that is how we will build that collective responsibility. I do not want to give the hon. Gentleman an incorrect answer, so I will write to him about the point that he raised.
