Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Stamford (Labour) in the House of Lords on Friday, 12 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on Strategic Defence and Security Review.


Strategic Defence and Security Review

I absolutely do not recognise that. Indeed, my noble friend Lord Rosser has already dealt with that particular falsehood. What is more, I think that the Government are absolutely wrong to cut public spending generally, as they are doing, so far and so fast; and they are certainly wrong to take it out on defence in the way that they are.
