Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between John Healey and Chris Webb

Monday 8th September 2025 Commons Chamber

[Chris Webb (Blackpool South) (Lab)]

Young people in my constituency are crying out for decent, well-paid jobs, especially in the defence sector, so will the Secretary of State agree to meet me to discuss the Typhoon order that is desperately needed, not only for our country, but for jobs across Blackpool and Lancashire?

[John Healey]

I will indeed, and my hon. Friend will be encouraged, I hope, by the visit I paid to Turkey, and the initial agreement that I have signed with Turkey for a big new order of Typhoons, which will be built in Lancashire.
