The UK government, responding to increasing tensions with Russia, is launching a comprehensive Strategic Defence Review aimed at fortifying the military's readiness. Prime Minister and Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the necessity of viewing national security as a government priority. The Labour leader announced ambitious plans for the armed forces, proposing significant funding and support for service personnel. The overarching goal is to strengthen the UK's defense capabilities and ensure they align with contemporary challenges, invoking a collective national effort reminiscent of post-World War II recovery.
The British defence industry will be the engine of national renewal, not just about increasing our defence, but about reform and rebuilding.
This will scrutinize every aspect of defence to best meet the threats of today and return Britain to war fighting readiness.
Security and defence must be the central organising principle of government, the first thought in the morning, the last at night.
We're going to do that with the most ambitious programme of work to secure and rebuild our country since 1945.
