er Keir Starmer will be giving a press conference Wednesday afternoon, a day after a chilling Government dossier said that the UK must “actively prepare” for war.
A large-scale overhaul of Britain’s safety procedures has been ordered amid fears that Britons are facing “growing threats at home” and abroad according to Starmer”
MI5 have also warned that a terror attack is likely….
Starmer stated that “the world has changed. Russian aggression menaces our continent. Strategic competition is intensifying. Extremist ideologies are on the rise. Technology is transforming the nature of both war and domestic security. Hostile state activity takes place on British soil.”
He will have meetings at the NATO summit in The Hague, along with the US President and other world leaders who have jetted in.
MSN reports: It comes a day after a National Security Strategy said the years ahead will test the nation – with a World War Two-style spirit needed to deal with growing threats.
It said tackling the danger of nuclear weapons will be “more complex than it was even in the Cold War”. The document went on to warn that major powers like China and Russia are seeking to gain an upper hand in “outer space, cyberspace, the deep sea, and at the Arctic and Antarctic poles”.
The document says: “The years ahead will test the United Kingdom… The direction it takes – and the decisions we take – will reverberate through the decades.
“We will need agility and courage to succeed, but we should be optimistic. We remain a resolute country, rich in history, values and in our capabilities. But most of all, there is the determination of the British people themselves. After all, we do not need to look too far into our history for an example of a whole-of-society effort, motivated by a collective will to keep each other safe.
“We can mobilise that spirit again and use it both for our national security and the rebuilding of our country.”
Defence Secretary John Healey said the PM trusts that Trump’s America would come to the aid of NATO allies. He told Times Radio: “Do I trust President Trump and the US’s commitment to Article 5? Yes.
“So does our Prime Minister, and he does because in the Oval Office on his visit to the White House, President Trump gave him that commitment in public.”
