Britain in the World

Proceeding contribution from Emily Thornberry (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 January 2020. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Britain in the World.

I am grateful to the right hon. Gentleman. I would like to know whether it is right that, for example, the number of experts has dropped from 70 to 40. Could he perhaps tell us that? Is it right that the budget has fallen from £15 million to £2 million and that, instead of there being 34 staff, there are only four including an intern? What conclusions we can draw from that? Perhaps we can particularly focus on that, because it seems to be a damning indictment of this Government.
