One of europes most notorious people smugglers has been arrested following a bbc investigation. Barzan majeed, also known as scorpion, was arrested in Iraqi Kurdistan on sunday morning. The next five years will be some of the most dangerous and, at the same time, the most transformational our country has ever known. That was the claim made this morning by the british Prime Minister, rishi sunak. In a speech to the Policy Exchange here in london, the Prime Minister set out a list of Dangers Britain is already facing, the threats from russia and china, Mass Migration and the extremists that exploit it, gender activists, cancel culture, the scottish nationalists trying to tear the uk apart. Weve proudly taken the generational decision to increase Defence Spending to a new baseline of 2. 5 of gdp by 2030, yet labour have refused to match our pledge. Keir starmer supported a former Labour Leader who wanted to abolish the army and withdraw from nato. And labours Current Deputy leader, shadow Foreign Secretary and many others voted against our nuclear deterrent, the ultimate guarantor of our security. Rishi sunak has spent much of his time in number 10 distancing himself from the record of his predecessors, but in this speech, the Prime Minister owned and embraced the 14 years of tory government. Labour, he said, was trying to tarnish the success of those years in office by reducing it to the chaotic 49 day period of liz truss� s premiership. He accused the Shadow Front Bench of trying to depress their way to victory. Is this the beginning of an argument from you that says, be careful what you wish for, Better The Devil You Know . In a word, yes, chris. Laughter. Guto harri, former Downing Street director of communications, and political analyst mary anne marsh.

It can do, i think the big thing in elections is whether i big thing in elections is whether you offer hope or fear and what is interesting today rishi sunak has tried to offer both, to try to shift our gaze from what has gone on in recent years, particularly the chaos of very recent years and look ahead to the rest of the decade because thatis to the rest of the decade because that is why we will be voting in the next general election, not a referendum what has gone, it is a choice of who we want to leaders, what lies ahead and what lies ahead are extremely anxious times in terms of the world itself with potential for war, some people even talking about a third world war. But also fantastic transformational opportunities in Artificial Intelligence and a whole load of other technologies and what he is saying essentially is, do you want a 62 year old former Human Rights Lawyer who leads a party stuck in the past to lead you to the end of that decade, or do you want this hard working, clean living a0 something guy with an mba from a californian university, a degree from oxford . He is clearly offering a better choice and we have had for a better choice and we have had for a long time. A better choice and we have had for a long time a long time. That former human riahts a long time. That former Human Rights Lawyer a long time. That former Human Rights Lawyer within a long time. That former Human Rights Lawyer within the a long time.

The economy has to grow because we embraced the opportunities that lie with the new technologies that are now available in nanotechnology, transformational things in health, the whole range of things opening with Artificial Intelligence and the a0 something Prime Minister get that well. Im told he can even have a very nervy conversation about algorithms and how you literally code with people who have met him on that. And i think that is a crucial thing, he was best placed to grow the economy and who is best place to just go in there and sort of say, what are we going to spend this diminishing cake on Customer Care is a management of decline with labour and at least now, at last perhaps, rishi sunak is starting to look and sound like the next generation, a little bit hungrier, more energetic. It has been admittedly a Long Time Coming but it is better to have a proper picture and a proper choice of the next election and now increasingly i think we will have one. ,. , increasingly i think we will have one. ,. ,. , one.

The paradox of our age, said the Prime Minister, is for all the profound dangers we face we also hold in our hands and opportunity for human progress.
