British Prime Minister Keir Starmer defended the government's long-delayed Defence Investment Plan during Prime Minister's Questions, saying it delivers a record £300 billion investment over the next four years. The plan includes funding for drones, autonomous weapons, Britain's nuclear deterrent, naval base upgrades and next-generation fighter jets. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch questioned whether the government had secured enough funding, arguing the plan falls billions of pounds short. Starmer rejected the criticism, accusing the previous Conservative government of weakening Britain's armed forces and insisting Labour's defence strategy will strengthen national security and reinforce the United Kingdom's commitments to NATO.
