Ahead of tonight’s important debate on Trident, the UK’s nuclear deterrent, Bolton West MP Chris Green has confirmed that he will be voting for its replacement.
All Conservative MPs are expected to vote for Trident’s replacement, however Labour MPs have been unable to come to a collective decision on this issue even though it is official Labour Party policy to renew Trident.
Chris commented:
“It is the first duty of any government to defend our country’s interests and protect its people which is why Conservatives are committed to renewing our nuclear deterrent, Trident, and maintaining our defence spending.
“Now more than ever, we cannot compromise on our national security – it’s impossible to say what threats may emerge in the coming years and decades that may threaten us.”
