  • Sir Keir Starmer is set to lay out Labour 's "plan for change" in a major speech on Thursday, with milestones including raising living standards, ending hospital backlogs and putting more police on the beat.

The article from AOL discusses Keir Starmer's first speech as the UK's new Prime Minister, where he pledged to rebuild Britain following a landslide victory for the Labour Party in the general election. Starmer emphasized the need for a "big reset" to address the challenges facing the nation, including economic stagnation, public service decline, and social inequality. He promised to restore trust in politics, focusing on serving working people, and outlined plans for economic growth, health service improvements, and enhancing community safety. Additionally, he acknowledged the need for a change in political culture, moving away from what he described as the "politics of performance" to a more grounded, service-oriented approach. Starmer also extended an olive branch to his political opponents, calling for cooperation to serve the country's best interests.
