Proceeding contribution from Liam Fox (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Defence Reform.


Defence Reform

I refute the idea that the United Kingdom is not among the leading defence powers in the world. We have the fourth biggest defence budget, and we have extraordinarily capable armed forces, which are among the most professional and best trained. If that does not put us in the premier league, I do not know what does.
