Proceeding contribution from Jim Cunningham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 July 2018. It occurred during Opposition day on Defence Industry and Shipbuilding.
Defence Industry and Shipbuilding
I do not know whether my hon. Friend has noticed, but Rolls-Royce is in the market to sell off its industrial marine division—the power generation division. Nobody knows yet who is likely to buy it, but it is likely that once again our defence is going to be manufactured abroad instead of being protected in this country.
