Proceeding contribution from Lord Hammond of Runnymede (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 January 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Strategic Defence and Security Review.


Strategic Defence and Security Review

I am sorry, Mr Deputy Speaker. The right hon. Gentleman says he is giving way, then stays standing up for another three sentences. I am confused. He says the redundancies in the armed forces are grotesque, but he says he will not reverse the spending cuts that the Government have announced. Which is it? Is he going to reverse the cuts or is he going to accept the redundancies?
