Proceeding contribution from Bernard Jenkin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on European Global Navigation Satellite System.


European Global Navigation Satellite System

Ten years ago, the Government could have vetoed the proposal, but as my hon. Friend says, they cannot do so now. Their attitude is, ““We must never say no; we must always say ‘yes, but’.”” There comes a point, however, when once the money starts being wasted we should say no, because if all those satellites become airborne, it will be the common agricultural policy of the stars.
