Keir Starmer Rebrands Labour as 'Party of National Security', Vows 'Triple Lock' on UK's Nuclear Deterrent
Jun 3, 2024, 09:41 AM
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has announced a rebranding of the Labour Party as the 'party of national security' and has vowed to maintain the UK's nuclear deterrent. In a speech on Monday, Starmer introduced a 'triple lock' promise on the Trident nuclear deterrent, emphasizing the importance of defence and national security. He stated that under his leadership, national security will always come first, and the Labour Party is committed to the security of the nation, armed forces, and the nuclear deterrent. Starmer criticized the current Conservative government, claiming that after 14 years under their leadership, the UK is less safe and secure. He also confirmed his preparedness to use nuclear weapons if necessary. The focus on defence is set to be a key part of Labour’s general election campaign.
