British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak warns of a dangerous future for the UK, emphasizing the need for Conservative leadership in an upcoming election. Sunak highlights national security concerns and criticizes Labour's defense policies. Labour leader Keir Starmer meets with trade unions to discuss workers' rights reforms, addressing concerns over potential watering down of proposals.
The UK would be less secure under Keir Starmer. Labour’s refusal to match our commitment to increase defence spending to 2.5% of GDP is music to the ears of Putin and other tyrants around the world. https://t.co/bL7M7F6PpC
"Mad politics, isn't it?" Following PMQs, @mrjamesob speaks to @NatashaC, who says Rishi Sunak's claim that Labour hasn't committed to his 2.5% of 2030 defence spending target 'doesn't wash'. https://t.co/gWhaH9uzPN
