Labour — Slough

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 November 2026

Debate

United Kingdom Military Installations

Contribution

At a time when we need our armed forces and defence industry even more, given the raised threat level, attacks on them are a cause for huge concern. That is why the Defence Committee raised this issue last year in our report on the UK’s contribution to European security. The trade associations all raised anxieties about the potential for attacks on defence industry employees when they appeared in front of the Committee last month. In the light of the withdrawal of US assets from both RAF Fairford and RAF Mildenhall, is the Minister concerned that the potential threat against defence bases and the defence industry seems to be increasing? What are the Government going to do to keep them safe?
