Mike Tapp

Labour — Dover and Deal

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 May 2025

Debate

Diego Garcia Military Base

Contribution

National security decisions and debate should be led by facts, not political point scoring, as we have seen today. Does the Secretary of State agree that had the Conservatives performed some sort of miracle and stayed in government at the election, they too would have signed this deal, and we would have supported that in the interests of national security?
