Proceeding contribution from Peter Kilfoyle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on Defence in the UK.
Defence in the UK
In the light of what the hon. Gentleman said, what does he make in the letter of 16 January in The Times in the names of Field Marshal Lord Bramall, General Lord Ramsbottom and General Sir Hugh Beach—people who would not normally be partial on these things—which was headlined, "The UK does not need a nuclear deterrent"? Would he say that they are old soldiers who are out of touch?
