Scotland is at the heart of the UK’s defence and security. The Secretary of State for Scotland @IanMurrayMP was in Glasgow as the Prime Minister launched the Strategic Defence Review, which sets a clear path for the next decade to make the UK secure at home and strong abroad.

We're building up to a dozen new attack submarines as part of the AUKUS programme, in response to rapidly increasing threats. This builds on a £15 billion investment in our sovereign nuclear warhead programme and will support 30,000 highly skilled jobs across the UK👇

Our Armed Forces are only as strong as the industries that stand behind them. We’re investing in our defence industries to bolster deterrence, create high-skilled jobs and drive growth across the country 👇

Our Armed Forces make immense sacrifices to serve our country. We're ensuring they have the homes they deserve. As part of the Strategic Defence Review, we're investing an extra £1.5 billion to improve military accommodation for thousands of personnel and their families.
