Defence

Proceeding contribution from James Gray (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 May 2024. It occurred during Debate on Defence.

I very much agree with the right hon. Gentleman that defence has to be a consensual matter. All the work I have done with

the Labour Front-Bench team has been very consensual, because they have talked a great deal of sense. Every single thing that the shadow Secretary of State has said this afternoon could easily have been said by a Conservative Secretary of State—there is nothing wrong with it whatsoever. Will he therefore continue that worthwhile cross-party consensus by agreeing to match our defence spending commitment of 2.5% of GDP?
