At PMQs Tory MP and veteran Stuart Anderson raised the unprecedented intervention of nine four-star generals this week, who described Labour’s approach to human rights as a threat to national security:
“And on that point, with the upcoming vote on the Northern Island Troubles Bill, nine of the most respected and experienced generals of a generation have publicly attacked the government’s approach on lawfare against our armed forces. They have said it will erode trust in the justice system and it is a threat to national security. As a veteran who served in Northern Ireland during the troubles, does the Prime Minister think they’re all wrong? And when is he actually going to start standing up for our veterans?”
Starmer said he would talk with the generals:
“When former service chiefs raise an issue, we will of course engage with them. Of course, I respect their service and their views and will do so. We are having to get rid of unlawful legislation and putting in place a system with clear rights and protections for veterans. And we’ll continue to try to get that balance right.”
No-one is buying that…
