Sir John Whittingdale

Conservative — Maldon

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 April 2026

Debate

Security Vetting

Contribution

The result of the Prime Minister’s terrible failure of judgment is that for over a year this country’s interests were represented in the United States by someone that our own security services deemed to be a security risk. Will he assure us that an investigation will take place into all aspects where our national security may have been damaged, and that the results of that will be made available to the Intelligence and Security Committee and, where possible, to Parliament?
