Questions to the Prime Minister?

Mr Craig Tracy.

Question number one, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

At the last Prime Minister's questions before Armistice Day, I know the whole House will

join me in paying tribute to all those who have fallen serving our country.

They gave their lives so we could live

ours in freedom. And it is right to pause and reflect every year on Armistice

Day also on the contribution of all those who serve our country.

Mr. Speaker, this morning I had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others, and in addition

to my duties in this House, I shall have further such meetings later today.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

I would like to associate myself with the Prime Minister's comments and look forward

to joining the Amistice Day Parade in bed within my constituency, which has been in existence

since 1921 and grown to be the largest in Britain.

On the point of the military, speaking to constituents in North Warwickshire,

the Government commitment of 2% of GDP spending was very welcome.

Would the Prime Minister agree with me that given the volatile state of many parts of the world,

it's more important than ever that we maintain that commitment

and give our brave troops the support, resources and equipment available.

I think my honourable friend is absolutely right. We do live in a very dangerous and uncertain world.
