Alison Bennett

Liberal Democrat — Mid Sussex

Speaking in the House of Commons on 25 February 2025

Debate

Defence and Security

Contribution

With some of our European allies likening our predicament in 2025 to that of 1938, the increase in defence spending announced today by the Prime Minister is welcome, but I am concerned that it will come too late. Will the Prime Minister look at Liberal Democrat proposals to increase the digital services tax, which would raise £3 billion this year?
