In a speech putting security at the heart of the looming battle, Rishi Sunak swiped that the Labour leader would say anything to get power.
Rishi Sunak today warned Keir Starmer 'can't be trusted' to 'keep Britain safe' with the risk of nuclear war the highest since the 1960s.
He said Sir Keir wanted to make people feel 'so bad about your country' that they hand him a huge majority, stressing that changing the government is not a cure for the country's problems. The Tories are struggling to get traction after a miserable round of council and mayoral elections earlier this month.
He accused Sir Keir of having 'no principles', saying he had 'gone from embracing Jeremy Corbyn to Natalie Elphicke, all in the cynical pursuit of power at any price'. Asked after the speech whether his message amounted to 'better the devil you know', Mr Sunak said 'yes'. They include using advances in artificial intelligence and biotech and turning them a force for good, as well as looking outside the box for solutions to mass immigration – such as the Rwanda scheme.
He added: 'Over the next few years, from our democracy to our economy to our society – to the hardest questions of war and peace – almost every aspect of our lives is going to change.
