Defence Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Thomas Docherty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 July 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Defence Reform Bill.

My concern is that, as the tail-end batsman, the hon. Gentleman is bringing a level of partisanship to the debate that we have not had so far. He needs to say sorry for the part he played in the Defence team that did two ridiculous U-turns on the aircraft carrier, which opened a capability gap on carrier strike that would not otherwise have existed and that led to more money being wasted. I agree with his point about our time in government, but does he accept that his Government have also made mistakes?
