Sir Bernard Jenkin

Conservative — Harwich and North Essex

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 June 2026

Debate

Defence Investment Plan

Contribution

Does the Minister realise how utterly discredited the Government now look? We all understand that a majority of Members of this House want the Government to take the necessary steps to find the extra money that is necessary for defence, but it is the failure of the Prime Minister to manage his own party that is at the root of the problem. Will changing the leader make any difference?
