Latika Takes interviews Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi

This week Latika Takes: The Podcast is in Slough, the constituency of Labour MP Tanmanjeet Singh Dheshi, who chairs the House of Commons Defence Select Committee. Mr Dhesi discusses the contents of his Committee’s recent review into AUKUS which found the program is ‘faltering.’ He says the program is ‘plodding along’ and needs a new push from the AUKUS leaders. He calls for an AUKUS visa, a dedicated envoy in each country to oversee the program as well as a boost in the UK’s defence spending.The AUKUS review can be found here: https://committees.parliament.uk/work/9068/aukus/This discussion also references this article and event.Latika Takes is a reader-supported publication.
