Britain in the World

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

The right hon. Gentleman is being generous. I fear that the hon. Member for Isle of Wight (Bob Seely) is confusing gravity with geography. Of course, it is entirely possible to trade with nations around the world, but the issue in today’s integrated supply chains is the speed with which parts can be delivered into advanced automated manufacturing. Is the right hon. Gentleman arguing that it is equally quick and efficient to get a part from Chicago as it is to get it from Munich, for example?
