The Government's defence policy is in such a mess that the Secretary of State has had to take a full page advertisement in The Times today to show that he still loves the Navy. As the Government have already changed their mind about HMS "Invincible", will they change their mind about the dockyards and stop the closures of Gibraltar and Chatham and the rundown of Portsmouth? Is the Minister aware that there is growing doubt in all sections of the House about the wisdom of the Government's policies?
