Proceeding contribution from Bob Ainsworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 February 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Strategic Defence Review (Green Paper).
Strategic Defence Review (Green Paper)
Yes, that is something that has got to be looked at. I would just remind the right hon. Gentleman that some of his hon. Friends suggested that I was paying for today at the expense of tomorrow when I moved some resources for the purchase of drones. I think such capability is exactly "tomorrow", whether that means in Afghanistan or anywhere else. The kind of thing the right hon. Gentleman mentioned is what we need to think about.
