The landmark Hillsborough Law legislation has now been passed by MPs in the House of Commons. We would like to reaffirm our enormous admiration, respect and appreciation for all those who have campaigned for the introduction of the Hillsborough Law. The 97, their families and survivors are forever in our thoughts. 🔗 lfc.tv/3TgJEr2

The UK's three main Naval Bases are set for a £26 billion transformation. Today, @LukePollard announced the largest investment in HMNB Clyde, Devonport and Portsmouth since the end of the Cold War, boosting the @RoyalNavy's war-fighting readiness for decades to come.

The UK is leading Europe in developing low-cost air defence systems. We’re awarding over £3 million to @FrankenburgTech, Cambridge Aeropsace and Greenjets to provide drone interceptors,supporting jobs across southern England. This is defence driving growth bit.ly/4ylUFY2

The threats we face are real and they are increasing and we are responding to that with increased defence spending and new capabilities. This Labour government is backing and renewing our forces with £298bn in the next four years 🇬🇧

The £26bn breaks down as £15.1bn for HMNB Clyde, £7.1bn for HMNB Devonport and £3.9bn for HMNB Portsmouth. This ends hollowing out and underfunding and is a vote of confidence in the men and women of the Royal Navy and our private sector partners who support the fleet.

Today on a visit to Faslane I announced the funding for the biggest upgrade of our naval bases since the end of the Cold War. £26bn will be spent in the next decade in a massive effort to improve availability, and warfighting readiness of our naval bases.

This was an appalling act of violence against someone who has contributed so much to our national life. These are very concerning developments and the police must be given the resources and space they need so justice can be done as quickly as possible. My thoughts go out to Ann’s friends and family and all who loved her. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

There is still so much more to do, but at a time when some people are actively seeking to divide us, it was more important than ever that we stood together on the Hoe to celebrate how far we’ve come, look out for each other, and show that love wins.

It was absolutely brilliant to be up on the Hoe for Plymouth Pride this weekend! 🏳️‍🌈✨ As Plymouth’s first openly gay MP, I am proud of the work this Government is doing to finally ban conversion practices once and for all.

This is terrible news. Ann Widdecombe brought conviction, wit and personality to public life over many years. My thoughts are with her family and friends. I hope her killer is brought to justice as quickly as possible and faces the full force of the law. bbc.co.uk/news/live/cp9l…

The news about Ann today has brought back memories of David Amess, the murdered MP, speaking to me on a number of occasions in the Commons about his close friendship with Ann and our experiences of standing in the 2019 election where Ann was the candidate against me. RIP Ann.

Shocked to hear about the news about Ann Widdecombe. Given the Police have opened an investigation, I want to encourage anyone with information to contact them. Sending my thoughts to Ann's friends and family.
Keir Starmer@Keir_Starmer

The whole country will be utterly shocked by the awful news about the circumstances of Ann Widdecombe’s death. Today we come together across the political divide and I pay tribute to Ann’s dedication during her many years of public service. My thoughts and deepest condolences are with Ann’s family and friends.

Great to see my colleague @LucyRigby open the Kraken facility this week. I visited myself a few weeks ago to see the work on their uncrewed boats we have bought for UK armed forces. We are spending more of a growing defence budget with British firms 🇬🇧
