today (Monday 11 May) will say
that “incremental change won't cut it” as he vows that “we will
face up to the big challenges” the country faces.
The Prime Minister has said that he will set out the next steps
in his plan to build a stronger and fairer Britain in the coming
days and weeks.
As part of this, he will deliver a speech on Monday where he will
say: “To meet the challenges that our country faces incremental
change won't cut it.
“On growth, defence, Europe, energy – we need a bigger response
than we anticipated in 2024 because these are not ordinary
times.
“Strength through fairness. It's a core Labour argument. And you
will see those values writ large in the King's Speech. And you
will see hope, urgency and exactly whose side we are on.”
He will add: “People need hope. We will face up to the big
challenges and we will make the big arguments.
“The Labour case that only Labour values and Labour policies can
ensure our country not only weathers these storms but emerges
stronger and fairer.”
He will go on to say that and the Conservatives are
“defined by breaking our relationship with Europe”.
He will add: “This Labour Government will be defined by
rebuilding our relationship and by putting Britain at the
heart of Europe. So that we are stronger on the economy, on
trade, on defence, you name it.
“Because standing shoulder to shoulder with the countries that
most share our interests, our values and our enemies that is the
right choice for Britain, that is the Labour choice.”
