Proceeding contribution from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 January 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Armed Forces Personnel.
Armed Forces Personnel
The hon. Gentleman mentions Faslane and he brings up an interesting point in Liberal Democrat policy. The fleet of submarines there are nuclear powered, and the Liberal Democrats seem to support the presence of naval personnel on those submarines, yet they are not keen to support nuclear energy on the ground. Why is it not good for the citizens of Britain to be near a nuclear power station, but it is okay for our naval personnel to be operating on a nuclear-powered submarine?
