Keir Starmer: “The DIP will provide the resources our military need to keep us safe and will be backed by necessary investment.”

It’s work I started before I became an MP and it’s work I’m keen to continue after I’m an MP.

Since then, it has been the privilege of my life to serve you and this great country as Prime Minister, and I am confident that Britain is now stronger and fairer than it was two years ago.

In six and a half years, I took our party from a historic defeat in 2019, changed it so it was fit to face the country and won a landslide general election victory in 2024.

I will also continue, as I have done for a long time now with others, to work on combating violence against women and girls; that is an issue that matters to me hugely.
