Starmer is unveiling the Defence Investment Plan. His swan song…
Chief of the Defence Staff Air Chief Marshal Sir Rich Knighton’s quote is not that enthusiastic:
“This plan sets out how and where we will invest in defence over the coming years to deliver the Strategic Defence Review and build the integrated force the nation needs.
It also reflects both the importance of national defence and the vital contribution our Armed Forces make every day to keeping the country safe.”
Badenoch said at her speech on Monday morning: “We are absolutely ready to fight a general election. We say the results in Aberdeen South: 50% of the vote. Because we can unite the country… It’s about uniting the country, for God’s sake, behind a centre-right agenda.”
