Priti Patel

Conservative — Witham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 February 2025

Debate

British Indian Ocean Territory

Contribution

My right hon. Friend makes an important point, and that is why we on the Opposition side of the House will be scrutinising the Government even further on this. We will be holding them to account. They simply do not value sovereignty and they are about to give away control, and that is simply unacceptable.
