Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones | I'm on your side

I have visited Avon Protection in Melksham, twice in the last week, to offer my support to them as a local employer.

Local enterprises like Avon Protection play a vital part in making the UK defence industry the best in the world, which is why I’m delighted that a Conservative Government will produce a green Paper on defence SMEs to see how the Government can best help them.

I was very impressed by the gas masks made by Avon, and I hope that MoD will seriously consider them as a future option for the British Armed Forces.
