  • Mark Francois accused Sir Keir Starmer of undermining the "cornerstone of our defence policy" and attacked "Labour's persistent uncertainty on defence spending".

The article from Express.co.uk discusses Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer's approach to foreign policy, particularly in relation to the United States. It highlights Starmer's intention to maintain a "special relationship" with the US, despite his criticisms of the current Conservative government's handling of this relationship. Starmer has expressed concerns over the UK's diminishing influence on the world stage under the Tories, suggesting that a Labour government would work more closely with allies like the US to address global challenges. He has also indicated a desire to strengthen ties with Europe post-Brexit, while ensuring the UK's foreign policy remains robust and influential. The article also touches on Labour's stance on various international issues, including support for Ukraine and a more nuanced approach to China, aiming for a balance between economic engagement and security concerns.
