Proceeding contribution from Lord Skidelsky (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 7 November 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on UK Border Agency.
UK Border Agency
My Lords, I am sure the Minister is aware of Adam Smith’s famous remark that defence is more important than opulence. Does he agree that defence is also more important than austerity, and that the security of the realm should not be sacrificed to the cuts?
