Proceeding contribution from Bernard Jenkin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on Strategic Defence and Security Review.


Strategic Defence and Security Review

My hon. Friend is making some extremely powerful points. Does he agree that the emphasis now seems to have become a competition not between the three services, but between military personnel and civilian personnel? The fact that civilian personnel have given themselves equivalent ranks to military personnel has put them more in direct competition, so that they double up the functions of the armed forces.
