Er, is this thing on? Ha ha... I've been told to introduce myself so hello, I'm Harold Saxon, the new Defence Secretary - sorry, I'm supposed to say
Secretary of State for Defence now, aren't I? Well, that's going to take some getting used to! Anyway, I'm fairly new to the position so I hope you'll all bear with me while I figure out what all I'm doing here. I must say, it's quite a nice turn about to have a meeting in a place as nice as this! I look forward to getting to know you all. :-)
