It is completely unacceptable that the Prime Minister chose to side-step questions on the Trident test – Griffith
Nia Griffith MP, Labour’s
Shadow Defence Secretary, commenting on the Prime Minister’s failure to
explain when she knew about the Trident test blunder, said:
“This
report of a Trident missile veering off course during a test is clearly a very
serious matter indeed, and we need to know exactly what happened.”
“Furthermore,
it is completely unacceptable that today the Prime Minister chose to side-step
questions on the test, and would not even tell us when she knew about the
incident.
“I am demanding the Prime Minister come to
Parliament tomorrow to give a full explanation to MPs.”
