Text
I realise now that you were referring to the Sinn Féin Member, Mr Deputy Speaker. I thank my colleague for giving way so that I could reinforce his point that military spending is not expendable and thus able to be done away with. Military spending is a serious matter in the modern world. From listening to Sinn Féin Members, it seems that they would be happy for the UK, as serious player on the world stage, to abandon Ukraine to its fate rather than stand up for world peace and democracy.
