This week is Armed Forces week and what better visit to kickstart the week than a trip with the Defence Select Committee to the Royal Navy Command HQ in Portsmouth. During the visit we looked at the Royal Navy’s operations, readiness, equipment, and procurement. I was particularly impressed by the Queen Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carrier, which you can see in this video by clicking here – the largest and most advanced warship ever built for the Royal Navy, and one of our nations flagships.
Thank you to our fantastic Naval personnel and all our Armed Forces for everything you do to keep our nation safe every day.
