Tomorrow morning the leader of the TUV, Jim Allister KC MP, will host a briefing for MPs and Peers in Westminster delivered by Lt Gen Jonathan Riley CB DSO on the future of UK Defence Policy.
There has been much talk about an Reset in the UK’s relationship with the EU, at the heart of which is a paper published by the Council of Europe Presidency on 3rd December 2024, central to which are proposals for the UK to become engaged in EU defence integration.
Lt Gen Jonathan Riley CB DSO will reflect on the implications of these proposals and UK’s relationship with NATO.
Jim Allister said ‘There has seldom been a time when the question of UK defence and the future of UK defence policy has been more important. I am delighted to welcome General Riley to present to MPs and Peers on the consequences of the EU Reset proposals in relation to defence and the United Kingdom’s relationship with NATO.
