| Message | Members of Congress, Some things should not be left up to the private sector. Partially privatizing the defense industry would lead to corner cutting and a less effective service. This would result in a weakening of regulation and standards and would be disastrous for our security. My party supports the rise in corporation tax but would spend it on areas such as health, education, infrastructure, or transport. Ern Tracey Defense Secretary |
