Proceeding contribution from Peter Kilfoyle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 November 2005. It occurred during Debate and Adjournment debate on Defence in the United Kingdom.


Defence in the United Kingdom

The right hon. and learned Gentleman makes much of the loss of manpower—politically incorrect, I know—in the armed forces, but is not much of that to do with, and I am sure that the Chief of the General Staff would agree, the quality of housing that is available? Was not it the Conservative Government who virtually gave away military housing to the Nomura bank for a knock-down price, a deal that the incoming Government could do nothing about?
