Keir Starmer has announced a bold 'Plan for Change’, prioritising increased neighbourhood safety, improved NHS services, education reforms, and economic growth. Central to this vision is the pledge to recruit 13,000 additional police officers, police community support officers, and special constables across England and Wales. Starmer emphasised the importance of visible, community-based policing to restore trust and reduce fear. The plan also addresses NHS waiting lists, aiming to improve access to healthcare. Education reforms focus on early childhood development, ensuring children start school prepared to learn. Additionally, Starmer highlighted a commitment to clean energy, aiming to make Britain a green energy superpower by 2030. Addressing broader issues, Starmer pledged improvements in living standards, housing development, and stricter immigration controls. He criticised past governments for 'sticking plaster' politics, vowing lasting change through strategic, measurable goals.
