Stuart Anderson

Conservative — South Shropshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 June 2026

Debate

Defence Spending and Readiness

Contribution

I thank the Minister for taking my intervention. I, too, served with 20th Armoured Brigade and was deployed in operations from Germany over to the Balkans. She talks about mismanagement. She is in a position where, unless more funding comes forward, the Government are about to make some of the biggest cuts to the armed forces during the most hostile situation since the second world war. How does she square that circle?
